My stay at Planet Hotel was a mixed bag. The modern high-rise offered a spacious room with city views, which I appreciated. However, the disappointing breakfast and some cleanliness issues were not expected from a place of this caliber. Overall, it was a decent spot for just a night, but it could use some improvements.
