The hotel offers clean and tidy rooms with an amazing view of the water from the balcony. The service, although efficient, could be more engaging. The central location provides easy access to shops and entertainment, but the dining experience was mediocre.

The hotel has spacious and modern rooms with a balcony view of the Indian Ocean, but it may not be the quietest for getting some sleep. The service is friendly and welcoming, making me feel comfortable even with energetic kids around. The location is excellent, within easy reach of the town center and the beach. The dining experience was good but could use more variety. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly staff and a convenient location.

I had a wonderful stay celebrating with my family at this hotel. The location is fantastic, offering stunning views of the city, parks, and river. The rooms are spacious and overlook the bustling city below. However, dining options were a bit limited, and some meals were expensive. Overall, great value for the experience.
