I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, especially given the cleanliness and comfort of my room. The staff were attentive and went above and beyond to assist me, which I truly appreciated. However, the lack of on-site dining options late at night and a misleading shuttle service to the civic center were downsides to my experience. Overall, this hotel is good for the price, yet some improvements in these areas could enhance the experience.
