The hotel offered a mixed experience with average rooms but stunning city views. The service was friendly and helpful, especially with tour bookings, though safety concerns impacted transportation choices. The location initially felt threatening but proved convenient for certain activities. The dining experience was limited, but fresh fruits provided a bright spot. Overall, the hotel provided a decent stay with room for improvement.
