    The reasons I’m conflicted

    The staff here took the time to help me plan my itinerary with local tours and were genuinely friendly. Free airport shuttle made travel seamless and convenient after a long flight.

    Despite the comfortable experience, the rooms lacked temperature control which made it hard to sleep well at times during my stay.

    timely airport shuttle, nearby ATM, free luggage storage

    The WiFi speed is frustratingly slow!!! The area surrounding the hotel feels a bit run-down!!! The printed bills could definitely look more professional!!! Upgrading the bathroom facilities would really help!!!

    sparsely furnished
    poor insulation

    the room was unimaginably sparsely furnished, we were given only one towel for two people, how charming, and the sound insulation was simply non-existent. i expected a complimentary upgrade for my inconvenience, but i guess they don't roll out the red carpet for everyone.

    8/10

    When I got there, the driver was waitin’ for me, and the folks at the desk were real kind, makin’ sure I felt welcome right away. The breakfast had some of the best fresh juice and coffee I ever had. Only thing was the shower pressure coulda been better, but I still enjoyed my stay real good.

    During my stay at Hotel Lobelia, I was impressed by the friendly and attentive staff who were always ready to assist. The cozy room was clean and well-maintained, with comfortable bedding and a hot shower. I also enjoyed the breakfast offerings, which included a mix of local and western dishes.

    Shower water pressure was low.

    cozy room
    lovely balcony
    sun terrace
    spotty wifi

    The cozy room had a lovely balcony and I enjoyed scrumptious room service, but be warned, the food might be a little spicy for some. I loved the steam room and the sun terrace where I relaxed after a long day. The only hiccup was that the WiFi was a bit spotty at times, but it didn’t really spoil my fun! 🌞

    welcoming staff
    low shower pressure

    We were impressed with the hotel's welcoming staff, who helped us with our itinerary. The location was incredibly convenient, being just a short drive from the airport and near the city center, allowing us to explore local attractions easily. The 24/7 coffee area was a pleasant surprise, as we could grab drinks whenever we wanted without any hassle.

    However, the room's shower water pressure could have been better during our stay.

    construction noise
    service noise
    disruptive environment

    The staff demonstrated exceptional hospitality, ensuring all requests were handled swiftly, and the rooms were spacious and meticulously cleaned. Breakfast offered a delightful mix of local flavors. However, construction noise disrupted sleep, and service noises from the plumbing created an uncomfortable environment during my stay. The location was convenient with a free shuttle service, but these disturbances significantly impacted overall comfort.
