The pillows were like sawdust. Two slabs with no options at front desk for a different style pillow. I prefer hotels that offer a hard and soft option. Oh, and the room smelled like damp body odor.

The room had no vents. The bathroom didn’t have a fan, so out smallish room became really hot after someone took a shower. The only way to get fresh air into the room was to open a window. If it were really hot or cold outside, this would be challenging. Fortunately, the windows were double-glazed, which made the room quiet, but if we needed fresh air, we sacrificed the quiet.
Helpful staff. Good breakfast. Nice location, tucked away from the busy street.

Hotel main entrance is closed and hard to find the Hotel from the backside. Even the Taxi Driver had difficulty to find the Hotel entrance. Apart from that ICC World Cup was going and they did not have Facility for the channels. Breakfast should have at least options and variety for Asian Muslims, who avoid pork and pork ingredients products. (Halal food) They only showed free to air channels. Surely my genuine advice will increase customer satisfaction level and recommendations will flourish and indirectly increase business.
Nice Reception staff
