    “My Experince.”

    I want to share my experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me warmly and made me feel welcome. They were helpful and tried their best to assist us. However, the room was a bit dull because of low lighting, and the hotel looks quite old. The air conditioning was a little warm, and they didn't provide toothbrushes or 3in1. So I had to bring my own. On the plus side, the room was very clean and cleaned daily. As a regular guest, I’ve noticed that prices are increasing, but it seems the management isn’t making any improvements to the amenities.

    “Comfortable Stay”

    During our stay, all is functioning well accept a loose wall mounted clothes hanger. Apart from standard amenities, this room was provided with 2 bottles of shampoo (which you may request more from the staff), shared water zone, and spotted a strand of short hairs on the sheets probably staff hairs from setting up the mattress topper? Anyway i will just take it positive. And we noticed some sections of the walls you may heard your neighbours.

    “Stay one night”

    I stayed in Room 204 (twin bed) and overall, the experience was pleasant. The room was clean, and all the facilities were in good working condition. However, I did find the mattress a bit uncomfortable as I could feel the springs while lying down. It might be time to consider replacing it with a new one for better comfort. Aside from that, everything else was satisfactory.

    “Great Stay with Minor Flaws”

    This place offers excellent location, making it easy to explore nearby attractions while the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The cleanliness is commendable although there is room for improvement in a few areas. Facilities are solid, providing all the essentials for a comfortable stay but a bit more attention to detail would enhance the overall experience. It is a decent choice for anyone looking for convenience and good service.
