However, I found the breakfast offerings to be a bit lacking, which was a downside. Overall, it is good value for money, though some amenities could use improvement.

I recently stayed at this hotel and I must say, it offers a great blend of comfort and convenience. The rooms are spacious and come with modern amenities that truly made my stay enjoyable. However, the dining options could use a bit of variety, and I found myself wishing for more breakfast choices. Overall, the value for money is decent, but I was a bit surprised that Wi-Fi came at an extra cost.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and included great amenities, making my time there quite comfortable. The location is super convenient, as it's just a stone's throw from the subway and near the main attractions. However, the breakfast could use a little improvement, and the overall service was decent but not exceptional. The value for money was fair considering the facilities available.
