No complaints at all. A smallish room but had all the amenities in good working condition and clean. Also quiet. We took the room with a window. The window faced the main street but because of double layer of windows , the street sounds did not come through at all. Very happy that the stay was comfortable and most importantly clean.

New Hotel

Things inside the hotel room is new but abit small. Opposite is a Bar which the noise volume is high but i'm ok with it. Staffs is very helpful to call a taxi for me to travel to a shopping mall. However.... no taxi was available and one of the female staff says one of them will drive me there. I'm very impressed with the extra mile service. overall..... I'll go back there if I travel there again.

Refund pls

We were in Room 109 and unfortunately for the whole day on 1 April 2024, we were met with construction work next door. It was not only the buzzing and hacking that was annoying that forced us out of the room by 11am, but also the smell of paint that stuck throughout till 5pm when we came back. We had to resort to switching on the aircon all the way while we went out for dinner. The situation slightly improved but it still spoilt our mood. We have a video to show this but apparently we cannot attach as evidence here

My First Booking at this Hotel

This is my first stay at this hotel. First impression was bad. The main door was always lock (as a precaution for whatever reason you can guess) and I need to knock the glass panel to let the reception notice my present, to unlock the main door for my entry. Not sure is there any door bell. Then, I don't get the welcome greeting from the reception who are sitting but instead got the tilted eyeballs staring at me while I am walking closer to the counter. And so I started the conversation. It seems like the customer service is relative bad. Besides, I have no comment in the facility and environment as they are acceptable. Stay was pleasant although the room size is slightly bigger than a queen size bed. Not noisy, maybe my room is not near the window. Overall, I would recommend other to stay at this hotel. All the food, shopping and drinking are just at walking distance.

Not satisfy for the service

Location is good, room was nice but the service wasn't good. They can only gave one room card, it's not conviniectce when one of us went out for smoking and the other one in the toilet or sleeping, because we can't bring the room card as the electricity would down without the room card, and not able to use other card to replace it too. They changed the wifi password half an hour before the check out time without inform us while I was doing online booking at that time. I guess it maybe happen everyday just to chase the guests to check out early as i asked the reception about it, they were react it's normal to changed password not even apology for the inconvenience caused.
