The room was dirty and had a strong unpleasant smell. The toilet was covered in mold, making it extremely unhygienic. Both the security guard and reception staff displayed very poor behaviour. Even the prayer room provided for event attendees was foul-smelling and uncomfortable. Overall, a very disappointing experience.

Be careful when booking the Residence. Some host really do not care the condition of the room. They just open for booking even the room is not ready in every aspects!

Fortunately, it's easy to get a taxi or Grab car. I will defin...

The hotel itself was fine though the hotel room's toilet design is not too good, the blurred glass wall lacks privacy with a SMALL GAP between the blurred walls and the door has no lock, which is a major design flaw. Took a really long time to check in as well with family though understandable since a lot of family members and many rooms were booked. Food was good, rooms were clean. Staff were m...
