Ok, but not as good as it could be.
This hotel is ok. In my opinion a bit overpriced for what it delivers. Yes the 1 lift is slow, but I wanting a hurry. The feather pillow options were nice, and the proper king sized bed was appreciated. The room was simple, surprised there were no tissues. However, the TV situation was frustrating. Chromecast didn’t work and reception staff couldn’t resolve the issue. Our tv also switched off automatically after 5 mins. Became that frustrating we had to leave the hotel. The afternoon shift were amazing. The lady changed a setting and resolved it. The water pressure in the shower was light and disappointing, with not enough pressure for the full effect of a rain shower showerhead. Overall it was ok, but better options to explore at this price point

The hotel location was excellent, central to everything and it was clean, however there was a lack of storage/wardrobe space, and not enough towels and pillows were initially provided for the number of booked guests.

Room was as described, very clean and very fine details. The problem was the absence of a closets, just a wall bracket with a couple of hangers, not enough for a long stay. The room we got was spacious, but the view towards a tiny interior shaft wasn't expected. Location is perfect, easy access to transportation, surrounded by lots of restaurants and shopping malls. Staff was very helpful and kind. They provided us with good information regarding places to go and eat.
