Cleanliness102Mostly good

Overall staff is very courteous, breakfast is superb and rooms are very comfortable and clean.

Google, September 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest

The hotel is distinguished by its service and cleanliness, but the problem is that the location is crowded with people.

Google, September 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest

This means that your cleanliness needs to improve to deserve the five stars.

Google, September 2026, rated 1/5 by this guest

Too few mentions to judge: room size, food, breakfast, room condition, views, quiet at night, beds, pool and value.
