My stay at City Palace Hotel was a mix of experiences. While the staff, particularly Mr. Arjun and Night Manager Mr. Roshan Ali, were incredibly friendly and attentive, the room cleanliness and maintenance left much to be desired. Overall, I appreciated the warmth of the staff, but I hope for improvements in the accommodation quality. 🌟🏨
