Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were large, comfortable, clean, and very well equipped within a big shopping mall. The service was so nice and helpful, making my experience even better. The location was particularly nice, with amazing architecture and easy access to the motorway. The dining was good and plentiful, though it could be excellent with small changes. Overall, a great value for money with some minor areas for improvement.
