Rooms are generally quiet. The cleaning crew does a great job. Everything you need is here. Restaurants and stores are a bit far away but walking/taxi/bus/subway are your options. I like walking so it was fine. There are some parks to exercise nearby too. Rooms/carpets are getting a little wear but overall an excellent hotel, I would stay here again. ##### Nicholas Stayed 26 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chan 23 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good Clean and quiet ##### Chan Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Seunghee 5 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities When there was a problem with the temperature control in the room, the kind staff immediately resolved the issue.They were so helpful and professional. ##### Seunghee Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stanley 2 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent location and helpful staffs. ##### Stanley Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joseph 8 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent service, friendly, polite staff, clean room, excellent breakfast options, close to public transport. ##### Joseph Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 9 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The breakfast buffet selection is fantastic.
