Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
washroom design is way too small comparing to the same area of hotels
We enjoyed our stay here. We wish the one bed was as comfy as the other but we have zero complaints. Its close to a couple train lines, 7eleven, lawsons and not far from shopping mall.
Very clean rooms, friendly staff, multiple subway stations are reachable per foot (10-15 minutes). All amenities are there: soap, shampoo, towels etc. Elevator is available.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The carpet was very stained and the couch was also stained. It made me really hesitant to take off my shoes.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Overall, the stay was good. The location is not too far from the main areas. The room could have been cleaner; the carpet wasn't very clean or vacuumed. It is a small space, good for one person.
Good room. Good area. The bathroom amenities could be improved like fresh shower curtains. The shower curtains were really old, smelly and needed replacement.
Overall property was good.
