Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had a good view, plus the breakfast offered a lot of options. The service was exceptional, with the staff being friendly and even providing a free airport shuttle. The location was excellent, near Tiehua Village and close to various scenic areas. The dining experience was good, and the facilities met my expectations. However, the hotel isn't open later, limiting evening enjoyment, and the dining options could be better.
