Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were a bit misleading from the pictures online, with dated walls and furniture covered by a coat of paint that didn’t hide their age. Privacy was compromised due to the proximity to the general garden area and a noticeable bad odor lingered in the room, hinting at lack of freshness.
The hotel offers a mix of old-style charm with accommodating service. The rooms are cozy but a bit dated, and the location is serene yet lacking in nearby activities. The dining is average, and the facilities are sufficient for a relaxing stay.
