I had a mixed experience at the Royal Manotel. On the upside, the location was fantastic, letting me explore nearby cafes and the lake with ease. However, the room quality was disappointing, from the lingering smell of smoke to the noisy trains outside. While I appreciated the friendly staff and the clean areas, the overall vibe just didn't live up to the price I paid.
