What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious and Comfortable

I stayed in a spacious room that was perfect for our family. It featured a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, and even a dishwasher! The in-room washer/dryer was a huge convenience. The setup made our stay feel like a home away from home.

Great Gym Facilities

The gym on the ground floor was impressive! It was large and well-equipped with various cardio machines and free weights. I appreciated being able to maintain my fitness routine while traveling.

Convenient Parking Access

I loved that parking was available right across the street. It made it so easy as I didn't have to worry about finding a parking spot after a long day exploring the city. Definitely a plus for anyone traveling by car!

Immaculate Bathroom Setup

The bathroom was spotless and featured a lovely shower. I particularly enjoyed the washer/dryer combo, as it saved us from having to find a laundromat during our stay. The cleanliness really added to the overall comfort of our experience.
