the staff were very friendly and always greeted you with a smile. it was an easy walk to the city area where shops and restaurants are located. breakfast included fruit and yoghurt cereals and toast no cooked breakfast was provided. the aircon was good and quiet i needed that to sleep the hotel was quiet even with many guests.
i was disappointed at the lack of cutlery and plates. i was shocked that my room did not have a microwave. it would have been convenient to heat up food. the room was lacking in some very basic amenities.

Adequate Stay with a Few Hiccups
poor soundproofingunattractive pool
The lack of soundproofing was noticeable. I could clearly hear other guests arguing for two nights. I had to use a rolled towel to block light and muffle the noise from the hallway. The pool looked quite unattractive, so I didn't consider spending time there. Breakfast also disappointed me because it lacked fresh fruit and eggs.

Studio Apartment Stay

The staff were very friendly and helpful to my wife. She arrived one day before me and received a meal and a phone charger. I found the studio apartment to be nice and neat.
My balcony was a bit small. It barely had room for a chair overlooking a street.
