But I still managed to sleep quite well re...

No receiption to attend guest during check in at late night. No parking and need to park outside which is paid parking lot with total cost extra than hotel charges. Toilet fully glass type. Not suitable for family or group traveller. Not recommended hotel. No lift and need to use staircase.

I have to say that af...
