Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is conveniently located near the city center and motorway, making it easy to access. The rooms had all the necessary requirements but unfortunately lacked heating during my stay. The service was generally good with excellent customer service, although there was a slight issue during the night shift. The dining options were limited but included a few items suitable for Vegans. The hotel is right next to the Star City entertainment center, providing easy access to entertainment options.
The hotel is conveniently located near the Alexander stadium and offers easy access to Star City with various restaurant choices. While the rooms have twin beds and a bath, the obscure suburb location might not appeal to everyone.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and friendly staff. However, the dining options were limited. The location is convenient, close to attractions, but the service could use improvement.
