The location was very convenient. The Grove shopping mall was just across the street. I could easily walk to various restaurants and supermarkets. The hotel had a nice, relaxed atmosphere. I liked having coffee in the foyer each morning.

Various taxes were added to my bill, including tourism, parking, and amenity taxes.
