Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff of the hotel were nice. I asked for a room facing outside rather than a wall and they provided that. Unfortunately, the bed was very uncomfortable. It was extremely soft with no back support and bed framing was old and peeling. Plus one pillowcase was torn. The toilet flush button kept coming loose and needed multiple presses to stop the water. Overall, the room did what it needed to do, but comfort and maintenance were not great.

The rooms were cleaned along with complimentary water which is always a nice touch. The check-in staff were friendly as was the concierge. Security was present outside at all times and the hotel has a great ambience about it. The breakfast was ok and I do not believe the aircon was working properly.

Excellent staff, very helpful and courteous. Rooms were clean and nice and updated. I had the best shower at this hotel. The water pressure was FANTASTIC. I was not keen on the location. Breakfast was good. I went late and as expected some of the buffet items were cold, but when I went earlier it was much better. Overall, I would most likely stay here as a transient hotel.
