I had mixed feelings about my stay at this hotel. The location is quite convenient, right across from a great shopping mall, which provides plenty of dining options. However, the room was spacious but lacked essential amenities and had an unpleasant food smell coming from the restaurant below. The service was disappointing, with housekeeping not attending to my room during my stay, making it feel less welcoming overall.

My stay at this hotel turned out to be quite pleasant, with spacious and clean rooms that offered great value for the price. The location was fantastic, right by the Imago Mall, making it easy for shopping and dining. However, there were a few drawbacks, such as issues with the Wi-Fi and some quirks in the bathroom facilities. Overall, it's a solid choice for a short trip.

The hotel offers a spacious and clean family room that's perfect for multiple guests. The location is incredibly convenient, just a short walk to the Imago Mall, making it easy to grab snacks or head out for meals. The service was smooth despite a minor hiccup with the room type. However, the absence of complimentary bottled water is a downside, though water refill stations are available throughout the hotel.

My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The room was pleasantly clean and modern, but I encountered some serious issues with the service, particularly with the airport transfer. The hotel is tucked away, making it a bit tricky to find, but the staff were mostly friendly and accommodating. Overall, it’s a decent place for the price, but be prepared for some operational hiccups.
