Staffs are friendly and helpful and the hotel build is grand lavish. Point to the management, I stayed in 11th storey. there are birds nested on the ceiling around lift compound, and strong stench of pigeon manure detected. Despite I am there just for minutes waiting for lift to come, but this really turn me off. Mall beside hotel are under renovation and most shops are closed. I saw local family coming out from building with chips and grocery but I can't find supermarket inside. This made the hotel dull as I do not have much place to go (gym also under renovation)

Needs some care and attention!
The hotel is definitely looking tired. The swimming pool is uncared for, cold and unfriendly and inhabited by pigeons. The in-house restaurant (Chinese) is diabolical…where the service was appalling, the food bland and ones conversation was drowned out by the wailing karaoke next door. The air-conditioning couldn’t be altered in the room so it was constantly cold and whilst well furnished it needs redecorating. The breakfast however was varied and pleasant. No decaffeinated drinks available and NO alcohol on sale in the hotel at all.

A glimpse into the past
This is an old-fashioned grand hotel which unfortunately has been allowed to go into a decline. The decorative condition is appalling in places, eg paper peeling off one wall in our room and water leak damage in the corridor ceiling. If this kind of thing was repaired immediately, the hotel could be so much better. Breakfast had a huge variety of food, although not all was good quality. Car parking when we arrived was chaotic as there was a truck blocking direct access to the car park. Nevertheless it was all tolerable for the cheap rate we paid.
