The room was ok and staff very helpful, they mentioned to me about some work renovations that they were having, and pool was closed, also no wifi but stayed was ok for only one night
It’s next to a big shopping mall and there are quite a few restaurants near by. Felt good except my room’s key didn’t work most of the time and i had to change the room the next day. The breakfast was good with three hot items and regular stuff. Will stay at this place again.
