The hotel is wonderfully located in the city center, making it easy to access popular shops and convenience stores. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but the air conditioning could be more effective. The friendly staff provide great service, though room service could be quicker. The dining, especially the yogurts, is tasty, but breakfast could offer more variety. The facilities are modern and offer good value for money, but the Wi-Fi is not complimentary.

This hotel is centrally located in the town area, making it convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are spacious and modern, offering a comfortable stay. The staff is friendly and always ready to assist. However, the dining experience could be improved, especially with more diverse menu options. The facilities are well-maintained, but the pricing could be considered a bit high for the overall value provided.

The hotel is situated at the center of the city, making it easy to find popular shops and close to everything. The rooms are spacious and modern, offering a comfortable stay, though slightly pricey for the value. The service is impeccable with efficient room service and housekeeping. The location is convenient and ideal for exploring Georgetown's tourist attractions, yet it lacks some amenities. The dining experience, especially the homemade soup, adds a touch of warmth to the stay. The facilities are well-equipped but may need some updates to enhance the overall experience.
