perfect location helpful staff traffic noise cleaning issue
The hotel have a perfect location, close to the Mall. Staff was friendly and very helpful too. I had a early check in. The pool was awesome, I liked it very much.
Our room face the roadside and the traffic make it difficult to sleep well. Housekeeping didn't charge the room fully after cleaning. I find it unproffesional.
