misleading menu thin walls
I booked a room with breakfast included. i found i needed to pay extra for certain breakfast items which i considered misleading (the menu was a bit unclear). also, the walls seemed thin. I could hear conversations from the next room quite clearly at times. it disturbed my sleep schedule.

a nice stay!

cool decor perfect air conditioning easy access
the room was very clean with cool decor and a speaker. the air con worked perfectly during the hot weather. the drink area in the hallway was a really nice touch! access to the room was easy throughout the day and night.
i booked what i thought was a room with a king size bed, but it was actually a king size room with a regular bed. tea and coffee facilities are in the corridor, not in the room.
