The hotel is in a nice and quiet area while still being close to shops. The rooms are a good size and more than adequate for a busy day, but there was a musty smell from the air conditioner. The Filipina Staff were amazing and very friendly, although there was a bit of a delay during check-in. The location is convenient, although the iron board placement was awkward. The dining was sufficient, and they even opened up earlier for us. Facilities were good overall.

The dining experience was light but all-you-can-eat, offering basic cereal, toast, and a chance to meet other guests. However, the setup where the milk was separate from the coffee and tea station was slightly inconvenient.

I stayed at this hotel situated in a nice and quiet area yet close to shops, offering a good range of continental breakfast. The rooms were a bit small and lacked storage space, but they were clean. The service staff were congenial and extremely helpful, although not very proactive in suggesting dinner options. The location was excellent, very close to the city center. The dining experience was okay but basic. Overall, it’s a fairly new property in a quiet location with some room for improvement in certain areas.

The hotel rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, providing plastic wine glasses for relaxation in the spa. However, the lack of soundproofing was a downside, allowing noises from adjacent rooms and the lift to disturb my stay. The daily room servicing was a plus, but the presence of showers over the bath was not ideal for guests with mobility issues.

The hotel is conveniently located near the city center but still remains quiet, making it a great spot. The rooms were clean and modern, although a bit cramped for a long stay. The service was excellent, with a helpful and friendly staff. The dining experience offered basic but sufficient meals to start the day. Overall, it's a good value for money stay with some minor room for improvement.

I had a nice stay overall at this hotel. The rooms were well equipped, clean, and comfortable, but there was a slight smell of smoke and they felt a bit cramped. The service was excellent, with the staff being extremely welcoming, helpful, and accommodating. The location was convenient for exploring the city and accessing shops and restaurants, although it was a bit crowded. The dining experience was okay, but the continental breakfast could use some improvement. The hotel had some positive points but also needs some enhancements.

The dining experience was average with the continental breakfast. It could be improved with a wider selection, and converting the small pool area into a larger breakfast space with hot selections would be beneficial.
