Not a 4 star hotel
This is most definitely not a 4 star hotel. My rating would be higher if my expectations would have been for a 3 star hotel. Staff is very nice and friendly but the hotel is not great. The gym is a small room with no windows, there was a roof leak in the laundry room, and the pool is so small and uninviting that no one used it. It feels more like a pond than a pool. The hotel is quite far from anything to do or nice restaurants. Count on walking far or taking a car to go for dinner every day.
