The hotel is located between downtown and the airport, making it convenient for both purposes. While the rooms weren't super clean and amenities were a bit limited, the staff was very helpful. The location is good but not excellent, offering easy access to essential amenities and providing transportation services to key tour companies. The dining experience was excellent with a variety of choices, and the facilities were adequate.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and roomy, but the location was just good, not excellent, and the dining options were lacking with limited choices offered. The staff, however, were very friendly and helpful, always willing to suggest activities to do. The hotel provides basic facilities but with adequate upkeep.
