9/10 Wonderful! (226 reviews)

The room was very nice and comfortable. The staff was also very nice and accommodating. The bed is a bit stiff but the place is very clean so I'll take that over anything. Many different options in the breakfast buffet. The area felt pretty safe and there's options for a coffee shop or convenience store within a couple of blocks.

Although I researched this place that translate to English as “Blue Ponds” it shows that they are man made. The ponds do have a blue hue but tend to be on the greenish side. Not jaw dropping but a nice walk.
