    Need improvement in the restaurant also rooms should have a mini refry and a coffee maker like almost all hotels around, restaurant menus need more variety of everything, restaurant really need improvement.

    L like because is very closed to all government places about 3 min in car from court, migration,hospitals and clinics

    I misssed not having a refridgerator and I missed not being able to make coffee in the middle of the night. I have to remember the fact that I can't always have everything I want.

    The staff was accommodating and friendly. I had a specific need which required assistance. I just called the front desk requested assistance and they made sure that my request was satisfied. The service was exceptional. They have an onsite resturant which is really convenient . The menu had a great variety to choose from, I enjoyed the meals I chose, I also enjoyed having a balcony to be able to get fresh air and to people watch.

    Internal windows. Oddly, no glasses were provided in the room or bathroom. I went to the front desk and they gave me Styrofoam cups.

    Convenient location Good restaurant for breakfast.

    Room was very clean and staff was very courteous and attentive. Restaurant met and exceeded all of my expectations and the food and service was great. Keep in mind that this hotel is in downtown David, so expect downtown David with all the hustle and bustle that comes with a city area, so with that said, I rate my stay here as excellent.

    The AC in one of the rooms took a long time to cool the room, bit every thing else was great!

    Basic room very close to the bus station. We walked to our very early morning bus to learn that it was cancelled and easily walked back and back to sleep! Rooms were clean and comfortable.

    Maybe sometimes you can hear the noise from the parking lot .. and echo in the corridor .. but these things do not interfere at all, I love the hotel bed linen and pillows, you really relax! Towels are white. And downstairs there is a decent restaurant with delicious food and excellent waiters.

    I feel comfortable in this hotel, It is within walking distance from the bus station, friendly staff, there is a working area with excellent Wi-Fi, a quiet office, a printer and a computer. This is a very comfortable hotel!

    Restaurant price even though was average, its still expensive compared to bigger and more deluxe restaurants.

    Staff was very helpful, Room was very clean and the location was in the central area of the city we were visiting. Restaurant food was very good and flavorful.
