    The staff were friendly and so helpful! The outdoor deck on the 5th floor where you could sit and enjoy a free tea/coffee, was amazing with beautiful views. The location was excellent. Handy to everything including the metro. A perfect stay!
  • Yanjia

    The location is perfect, in the same building as CoopCity mall, and within walking distance of bus and metro. The room is well equipped. And network speed is good. Free self-service coffee is provided at the top-floor restaurant.
