I enjoyed my stay at Tlh Derwent Hotel, particularly the variety of food during meals and the entertainment options, which added to the overall experience. However, my room felt dated, and the bathroom setup was a bit odd. While the staff were friendly, there were areas that definitely need improvement, particularly in terms of the facilities and room comfort. Overall, it was a good trip, but there's room for enhancements.
