9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,003 reviews)
The room was exactly as shown on the website. The shower was great. I had a studio suite. It was big enough for me (solo traveller). I stayed 6 nights. I had requested a fan and they provided me with one. The one thing that was lacking in the room, was that there is no microwave oven. So i had to eat out. Couldn't reheat any food. Overall my stay was very satisfactory. I didn't try their breakfast, I ate out But they provided coffee,tea and milk.
