I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The staff tried their best to be accommodating, but unfortunately, the room we checked into was not up to par. Although the dining options offered a great selection, I was disappointed with the quality of some of the food served. The convenient location is a plus, but the comfort level of the room left much to be desired.

I recently stayed at this hotel as part of a group trip, and overall, it was a decent experience. The food was plentiful and well-prepared, and the staff managed to handle a large number of guests efficiently. However, there were some issues with the check-in process and the breakfast service that could definitely be improved. The cleanliness of my room was slightly compromised by a previous occupant's oversight, but it was spacious and comfortable nonetheless.
