7.6/10

The hotel is quite funky with clean rooms, featuring unique decor like a snare drum as a side table and a disco ball in the bathroom. My husband couldn't stop chuckling at the fun touches. The room had flat-screen TVs, deluxe sound systems, a jacuzzi bath, and an outside balcony area with a table and chairs. However, the room temperature was too hot and couldn't be adjusted.

My stay at the hotel was wonderful overall. The rooms were unique and funky, just as advertised, with cool features like a disco ball light. The service was amazing, and the staff went above and beyond to make my stay pleasurable. The location was convenient, albeit a bit far from the center, but easy access to transportation made up for it. The dining experience was good, though I would have liked more variety. Overall, a great experience with a few minor drawbacks.
