Best hotel to start the year 2024! The service was great. The staff were super polite and friendly. The room was vast and I added with a rollaway bed without any issues - still very spacious. There’s free breakfast too. Near shopping complex just this one focused more on electronic products. Not something tourists will want to buy. Haha. Overall, I will stay in this hotel again. ❤️

Breakfast buffet items get changed every few days or so, that way it's not always the same food to pick from, which is nice. We had a minor issue with our room and the hotel offered us a different room late one night. Very good hospitality!

Only spent one night but I found this hotel very good. They wanted to upgrade us to their best room, but gave a weird look when we requested twin beds. That gave me a chuckle. This hotel would be one of my top choices to stay.
