호텔 직원분들이 친절하신 것을 빼면 그저 그렇네요. 청소도 안해주시고, 쓰레기통도 다들 밖에 내놓길래 저희도 내놓았더니 비워져있더라구요. 그래서 가지고 들어왔어요. 식탁이 있어서 둘러 앉아 먹기는 좋았는데 물끊이는 처음보는 포트밖에 없어서 더 뭘 해먹거나 할 수는 없었어요. 물은 별도로 안주시고 밖에 먹는 식수(수도)가 있더라구요.

8/10

short stay ok; new rooms for family- but toilet and bathroom facilities require further refurbishment; staff friendly. comfortable for family. One good thing- if you have family of more than 3 kinds, all could stay on one room-though not that spacious, for medium budget, it is recommended.

Bilik bau rokok. tak sesuai untuk kanak-kanak

6/10

Call for Late Check in. Clean room and clean bathroom. comfortable bed for sleeping. Disadvantage are no wardrobe to hang close. only hook behind main room door. only 4 pillow for 2 queen bed. at least have 1 or 2 extra pillow. Morning at around 8 the cleaners talk too loud when they clean other rooms.

Hotels staff are nice. However, hotel looks gloomy and dull. Huge space for every one. Comfortable but old interior. Would be much better after renovation works.

8/10

地点很好，去壁画街和其它景点都很近，房间也很大。

10/10

The hotel was still under renovation during our stay thus the exterior was a little messy and with fresh paint smell, but the rooms and toilets are super clean and comfortable, they look very new.We took the family suite and it was just as the pictures displayed. Prices are really worth it. Overall we are satisfied and happy with our stay here.

4/10

The hotel is under renovation. Noise of construction quite frustrating at day time. Lift service needs to be improved. The water after boiled via heater is smelly. best part is the air conditioning working well.

4/10

There was no tea coffee making facilities, not enough toilet rolls. We had to buy them from the nearest supermarket.

4/10

Poor service. You have to ask for hair dryer, sleepers, there were no any wardrobe. Some lights were not on. The blaster for the light were so noisy. Can see ants on the dinning tables. You can't event borrow a phone to make a local call (event at the reception desk)!
