All staffs are very nice and friendly. I’m arrived earlier than the check-in time and it’s allowed me to store the luggage. The king bed room is clean, cozy and comfortable. Room size is not big but good enough for 1-2 people and for 1 luggage (opened). Location is excellent. Eating, shopping is just nearby. Absolutely I will stay here again for my next KR trip.
