My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were spacious and comfortable, they could have been cleaner and better maintained. The service was top-notch, with the staff going out of their way to accommodate our requests. The location was ideal for my purposes, being close to the airport and not far from the city center. The dining options were satisfactory, offering a good variety of choices. The facilities were decent but could use some updating.

The hotel has the potential to be great but falls short of expectations for a longer stay due to room issues, although the service is friendly and accommodating. The location is convenient for specific purposes but lacks accessibility to the city center. Dining options are good but may not suit early risers. The hotel offers adequate facilities for a short stay.

I really enjoyed the location of the hotel, perfect for walking to the P & J Live venue within 5 minutes. While the proximity to the airport means you can see planes passing, it can get a bit noisy. The staff were very friendly and eager to assist, making the stay pleasant overall.

Rooms
7.0
The room had a unique feature of being able to see the airplanes passing by, which was quite entertaining. However, the decor seemed tired and dated, and the walls were not very soundproof as we could hear our neighbors as if they were in the same room.

Location

The hotel's location is perfect if you're attending an event at P & J Live, but not ideal if you want quick access to the city center. The nearby airport can be noisy at times, but the convenience for specific venues like Teca is ideal.
Dining
8.0
The dining experience was of a high standard, with dishes cooked to order which was a delightful touch. However, it didn't quite match the excellence of dinner, leaving a bit to be desired.
