9.6/10 Exceptional! (175 reviews)
Great place to stay and convenient to food places. There’s a 7-11 store just around the corner.
Friendly staff that speak English well soo that was really helpful and easy for our stay.
Clean rooms with lots of amenities and feels like a cosy home away from home.
Walkable to main shops and metro. We were travelling with our 5yo or took the taxi most of time going back to hotel.
Also, the hotel has the same-day delivery luggage service available to purchase and for you to organise.
