Frommer's Review

A 5-minute drive from City Centre, this hotel offers comfortable modern rooms, a restaurant, an Internet kiosk, and a location convenient to the convention centers and the countryside. Rooms are often a bit cramped, but all are equipped with twin or double beds. Bathrooms are small but tidily organized, but make sure to ask whether yours has a shower or tub, as the rooms vary. Double-glazed windows cut down noise. The suites are a good value here, as they incorporate a minibar, private kitchen, and their own dining and lounge facilities.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; room service; laundry service; dry cleaning

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
