We recently stayed at this hotel and were pleasantly surprised by how comfortable and affordable it was. The room was quite spacious, clean, and well-maintained.

The room is pretty decent and nothing to complain about plus it not bad for a budget room. But there's a issue with the wifi room 2204A, already put the wifi password given but then it ask another password but this time i can't use the same wifi password. Hope the management can take a look at this issue. Well you have a another return guest another time👍🏻

Had a decent stay here. Staff were all friendly and helpful. There’s a WhatsApp number to ask for anything. Room was big and comfortable. Shower had hot water. Location is good with a lot of restaurants near by or 15 mins away from the busier areas e.g the mall. The building itself is a bit weird like an old parking lot but the rooms were all fine. There are a few blocks with lifts to all floors.

Very noisy for the whole night for every night. So you must bring ear plugs. No place for you to hang clothes in the bathroom. You better bring your own hanger. The refrigerator is not working. For the lift, heard rumour t...
