They wanted to upgrade us to their best room, but gave a weird look when we requested twin beds. That gave me a chuckle. This hotel would be one of my top choices to stay. ##### James Stayed 1 night in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James 9 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Breakfast buffet items get changed every few days or so, that way it's not always the same food to pick from, which is nice. We had a minor issue with our room and the hotel offered us a different room late one night. Very good hospitality! ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Muhamad Firdaus bin 4 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great service.

The service was great. The staff were super polite and friendly. The room was vast and I added with a rollaway bed without any issues - still very spacious. There’s free breakfast too. Near shopping complex just this one focused more on electronic products. Not something tourists will want to buy. Haha. Overall, I will stay in this hotel again. ❤️ ##### Marga indraswari ### 6/10 Okay #### Madeleine 22 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Trots att vi kom 14:30, alltså 30 min efter incheckningen så var vårat rum inte färdigt. Rummet var stort och sängen skön. Netflix på tvn är ett stort plus. Gymmet var också okej. Saknade dock av. Löpbandet var dock inte plant.
