My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly. The location was convenient, but the dining options were limited. The facilities were well-maintained, but there were some minor drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was cozy with a very comfortable bed but the pull-out bed on the balcony was not ideal. The service was excellent, offering convenient room service and housekeeping. However, the location, although active and close to bars, was in the underground area which felt a bit isolated. The dining options were limited to street food only, and the facilities lacked variety.
