The hotel is situated in a convenient location in Solo, close to iconic spots and culinary delights. The rooms, although a bit tired, are spacious and well-maintained. The service is exceptional, particularly at the Saraswati Bar. The dining options offer a variety of traditional and standard breakfast items. However, the closure was slow, and the rooms had some old towels that were discolored.

The hotel may not be up to par with other new hotels in Solo, as it needs refurbishment, but it offers free breakfast for kids under 16. The service is excellent with fast check-in and out processes. The central location is convenient for exploring Solo, but the hotel is in urgent need of renovation.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were in need of renovation, but after a wait, I received a free upgrade to a large and comfy room which was nice. The service was attentive but not always speedy. The location was convenient but a bit outdated and neglected. The dining options were average. Overall, it was an okay stay with some ups and downs.
