I had a great stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean and comfy, and the staff was super friendly. The location is fantastic, right next to a popular Indian restaurant and close to the Colonie shopping center. However, the fast food dining options were a bit limited. Overall, a good value for the money.

The hotel has loud but functioning AC, comfortable queen bed, fridge, microwave, and updated decor in the rooms. The service offers housekeeping, laundry, and valet parking. Located in a great area near everything with a very good Indian restaurant nearby but can be noisy. The dining experience offers traditional bread.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location couldn't be better, right next to a beautiful beach and surrounded by fantastic restaurants. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the staff was incredibly friendly. However, the dining choices were a bit limited. The pool area was a highlight, well-maintained and perfect for relaxing. The price was fair, but it would have been better if Wi-Fi was included in the rate.

I had a great stay at this hotel with some minor drawbacks. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and the AC, although loud, worked perfectly. The updated decor added a nice touch to the overall ambiance. The location was wonderful, near many local museums and right next to a popular Indian restaurant. However, the dining options were limited, and the Wi-Fi had an additional fee. Despite these issues, I found the hotel to be a good value for the money.

The hotel is situated in a bustling area, close to various restaurants and easily accessible to local museums. The rooms offer a mix of functionality and style, equipped with a loud but efficiently working AC, a cozy queen bed, and modern decor. However, the dining experience centered around typical Sicilian products. The overall value for money is decent, considering the convenient location and updated room features.
