  • 4.0.Fair

    The hotel was decent, good location. The only reason it's a disappointing review is because a couple were kicking off from 2-3am and literally nothing was done to stop any of it. No security seemed to handle the situation it was just a bit of a mess.

    Stained carpets, very stuffy, windows can't be opened and the Aircon is far too noisy to leave on during the night.

    1 night family trip, Aug 16, 2020

    Verified Expedia guest review

  • 6.0.Good

    Pleasing but not excellent

    It was not a good start as the card to open the door doesn't work. I was going up and down to the reception to resolve but it was not resolved until the following day. It was due to the defective locking system. The bed was too small for two people, it was a small double. We had booked a buffet breakfast as advertised but they served 'pick and go' breakfast. The hotel is in good location and close to a shopping mall and shopping centre. Quiet and neat. The staff are friendly.
