The hotel's rooms were spacious and comfortable with all the amenities, but they remained too warm at night for comfortably sleeping under a comforter. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff accommodating all our needs. The location was terrific, right next to the center of the city and close to beautiful tourist destinations. The dining experience at the main restaurant was wonderful, offering a mix of Western and Indian fare, although some may prefer dining out. The facilities were well-maintained and offered a cozy atmosphere.
