The breakfast was not good. it was very disappointing, we arrived at 9:20 and everything was gone and not replenished. i would not recommend breakfast here. the room also was not very clean. It had a very strong smell of air freshener. it was quite overpowering and made it hard to relax. the ventilation in the room was also defective, the air felt stagnant and stuffy.

Acceptable stay in central location

central locationsteel shutterfaulty tvsmall drain

The hotel is near many shops and dining spots. I found it quite convenient. My room was also very quiet, despite its central location. The double glazing and steel shutter were very helpful.

The TV in my room didn't work. Only one of the six charging points functioned. The shower design was flawed. A small drain combined with a large shower head risked flooding the bathroom.
