i found the location quite convenient, as it was within walking distance of many attractions. the room was clean, which i appreciated. the availability of free tea and coffee in the reception area was a nice touch (i used it every morning).
The entrance door. This was a bit distracting. the bathroom was quite small, and the toilet's positioning was a little awkward. i was also a bit concerned about leaving my luggage in the open lobby before check-in.

i was able to check in early upon arrival. i appreciated the helpful and friendly staff members i encountered. i felt safe with the locked security doors and desk attendants at the front.
the ac unit would not go below 23c i had to keep the window open. the open window let in more noise. the hairdryer was old and barely helped to dry my hair.
