Guests consistently praised the hotel's breakfast, describing it as excellent, delicious, and well-prepared. The service and hospitality from staff were frequently highlighted as friendly and professional, making guests feel valued and welcome. Cleanliness was another strong point, with many guests noting the neatness of rooms and public areas. However, several guests were disappointed by the rooftop pool being out of service without prior notice, and a few mentioned issues with bathroom cleanliness, elevator access, and minor room amenities. Overall, the positives of breakfast, service, and cleanliness stood out most.
