Stayed for 3 nights and had a great experience. The room was clean, spacious, and the king-size bed was very comfortable. Front desk and housekeeping staff were professional and friendly. I also appreciated the fast service when I requested an electric kettle for tea. The only minor issue was that the bathroom sliding door was a bit hard to move. Overall, a pleasant stay and I would return.
