8/10 Good
"The best thing about this hotel is definitely the staff—they are amazing! Everyone was extremely friendly, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay. The biggest downside is the location. The hotel is quite far from the city center, which can be very inconvenient, especially if you plan on spending most of your time sightseeing and exploring the main attractions. Overall, the staff really made the experience a positive one, but I would definitely consider the distance from the city center when booking."
