Positive Reviews
positive:
The hotel has spacious and comfortable guestrooms
The rooms are well maintained. The housekeeping staff is very qualified and the rooms and bathrooms are kept very clean. The rainfall showerhead was a meticulous favourite of many guests at the hotel. The beds are very comfortable and an adequate amount of pillows have been provided in each room. The air conditioner in the room is very powerful and functions well.
positive:
Great location close to many shops and restaurants
The hotel is close to an affordable public parking lot. There are plenty of eateries and shops in the area to cater for a wide variety of tastes. As it is at the centre of the city, there are a lot of attractions within an easy walking distance of the hotel.
positive:
The hotel has good Wi-Fi connectivity
The wireless internet connection at the hotel is good. Those who used it were quite delighted with their browsing experience as the relatively high speed connection was available throughout the premises, was quite easy to connect to and did not have any downtime.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Limited parking at the hotel's onsite lot
A number of guests have raised their concerns regarding the limited parking spaces available at the hotel's parking lot. When the hotel is busy and room occupancy is high, parking spaces quickly run out and guests are left seeking options to park elsewhere.
negative:
The rooms are not well insulated against sound
A number of guests thought their rooms had very poor soundproofing. The walls are quite thin and it's very easy to hear what's going on next door.
negative:
The restaurant's breakfast spread very limited
A good majority of guests found the breakfast menu to be subpar. Those on special diets did not feel adequately catered to. Some were of the view that the food's quality was inferior and the selection was not as diverse as was expected.
