convenient locationfriendly staffbirthday cakepoor drainageaverage breakfastnoisy corridor
The location is convenient near a metro station. It is also close to a large shopping center. The staff was generally friendly and accommodating. I received a birthday cake which was very nice.
The shower in the bathroom did not drain properly. This caused the bathroom floor to flood. The breakfast options were average and not always appealing. Sometimes the corridor was noisy due to guests talking loudly.

mixed feelings about my stay

loud musicunstable water
The noise levels were unacceptable. A nightclub operates within the hotel. even on the 14th floor, sleep was impossible due to the loud music. additionally, the water temperature in the bathroom fluctuated constantly, it changed from hot to cold continuously.

convenient locationdaily refillfresh towelslift maintenance
The location is very convenient with easy access to the mall. There are many restaurants and a carrefour within a short walk. The hotel provides good wifi and daily refills of water and tea. The room was always clean and stocked with fresh towels.
This caused some delays during peak hours. I hope they get this fixed soon.
