Located right on shopping strip. Convenient to shopping and other attractions. Staff were very friendly and ready to serve. 24 hours laundry free service. Good breakfast and free tea/coffee during the day. One note that the location is not accessible via car due to located right on shopping strip. A few steps from main road.

The front desk staff and the housekeeping ladies are very nice and helpful. The location is perfect, in the pedestrian zone, The building and rooms are remodeled and well maintained. The toiled and bath are not separated which is typical in the residential building in the area, but not common with hotels. The breakfast is very basic.

The room is very clean. The bed sheets and pillowcases are all pure white, making it very reassuring. The bathroom has high water pressure, and taking a shower is very comfortable. After a day of playing, taking a hot bath at home eliminates all the fatigue. The air conditioner also cools down quickly, and you can feel cool as soon as you enter the room.

The location of hotel is convenient to shopping and eating but getting there take a bit longer because most of the traffics in the areas are ONE way streets and taxis has to loop around instead of a straight line. Fortunately the taxi fare is cheap.

Just checked out after a two-night stay, and I’m pretty happy overall.The hotel is right on Pedestrian Street. Step right downstairs and you’re in the tourist area. The location is unbeatable. The room isn’t huge, but the layout is sensible and it has everything you need—super comfortable to stay in.Cleanliness was good: the bed linens were clean, and the AC and hot water worked perfectly.The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, answering all my questions. If you’re visiting this area and want something convenient, this place is definitely worth considering.
