Spacious and Convenient Apartments

great sizeaccommodating staffquiet locationtight parking bays

The apartment size was great, offering much more space than other apartments I have stayed in before. The location was quiet, despite some drumming from a nearby temple (this didn't bother me much, though). The staff were very accommodating, and I found the location quite good for getting around.

Parking cost extra, and the parking bays were very tight. This made parking a bit difficult, and I felt the charge was unnecessary. I think parking should be included in the stay.

Location

The hotel is within walking distance of many shops and eateries. The central location made it easy to access various attractions. I found the area to be quite convenient for exploring the surrounding area.
