I had a nice stay at the hotel, which offered modern, clean rooms with great views of the river. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the service one of the highlights. However, the location was a bit isolated, making it challenging to access nearby shops and restaurants. Dining was decent, but there weren't many choices for breakfast. Overall, it’s a good value for the money, but expect some trade-offs.
