Spent 2 nights at this strip-mall style nondescript bland & gaudy hotel used to be called 'East is Red' mainly catering ethnic Chinese clienteles. Room was spacious but everything showed well worn due to long usage. Safety box was not working and front desk staff could barely be bothered to help or explain. The hotel served my purpose well of visiting local friend who lives nearby.

When I first checked in,they gave me a room with no window. I appealled to the counter that they should hv stated if the room I booked hv no window. They wanted me to complaint to Expedia or else I hv to upgrade to a room with window and need to pay some extra money. Anyhow, finally they change me a room with window and no extra charges.

Good stay but need improvement on customer service

Room was good and clean, and there's restaurants nearby, just walking distance. If you're a night owl, this is the place, there are a lot bars nearby. Staffs from Afternoon shift were not so friendly, as we have encountered some issues on our booking. And we need to resolve the problem by ourselves, rather than getting assistance from them. Other than that, it was fine.

It was OK!

We stayed a night at this hotel as we were attending a dinner and drinks get together with some family and friends which was nearby the hotel. Checking in was ok....the front desk staff is a wee bit slow but not too bad. The room was small but clean. The basic necessities were available. The air conditioner worked very well which was an 'A' in our books. Had a good night sleep after the merrymaking. Checking out was not too shabby either. There's convenience stores opposite the hotel. A pretty good Chinese restaurant within the hotel premises. Some drinking establishments very nearby as well. All in all it was pleasant and if we had to do it again we will.

Poor service

We booked 2 family rooms, the front desk staffs spent almost 30mins just to check the rooms. At the end, they told us only 1 family room available, the other room released to agoda. By right they should upgrade or compensate us with better room, but they only offered us a smaller room(standard) without apologizing. Overall, we have terrible experience with the hotel, especially the front desk staffs. Definitely will not come back to this hotel.
