My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were smelly, dark, and not well-maintained, with issues like a shared pool and dirty stains. However, the service was friendly and helpful. The location was convenient but noisy due to its proximity to the airport. The dining options were limited and underwhelming.

The service was friendly and helpful, although there were issues with room maintenance. The location was convenient for my early flight, but the lack of lighting made it feel unsafe at night. The dining options were good, but the breakfast could be improved. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.
