the location is very accessible via public transport. the staff seemed friendly and helpful throughout the hotel. the bed felt very comfortable.
the hotel rooms lack traditional air conditioning. instead, there's an air system that cools the room when windows are closed. this system didn't effectively cool the room, and the temperature was not ideal.
