Perfect cleanliness and a professional team. The front desk staff was helpful, even providing a charger for my laptop when I needed it. Fresh dishes offered at the restaurant elevated my dining experience, though the breakfast selection could use some enhancement. Traffic congestion outside posed a challenge for travel plans, so timing was crucial.

I stayed in a Beautiful King Room for 3 nights. It was super clean and comfy. Aircon worked great, and I loved accessing my favorite TV channels. The staff were really good, even helping with my laptop charger. Only downside was the traffic outside, made getting around a bit of a hassle. But overall, a solid stay!
