During my stay at The Siena Hotel, I really appreciated the polite and gracious service from the staff, which definitely enhanced my experience. However, the facilities felt a bit tired, like the elevators needing some serious cleaning. My room was comfortable but lacked a view, and I had a tough morning when my early room service didn't meet my expectations. Overall, it was an okay experience with some pros and cons.
