convenient location smiling staff full toiletries faulty wardrobe wc malfunction stale air
The hotel location offered convenient access to local attractions. Staff members were smiling and helpful. The hotel provided toiletries. This was a nice touch.
The wardrobe in my room was faulty. Its sliding door fell down. The toilet's WC malfunctioned. The water would not refill after flushing, so I fixed it myself. I found the air in the room was not fresh.

Excellent Stay with Great Service

warm welcome daily cleaning fresh linen
Omar provided a warm welcome and followed up with a courtesy call to check on my room. Nasir, the room attendant, ensured everything was super clean with daily cleaning. He replaced fresh towels, linens, and bath amenities. I will return!
The communication with the front desk was confusing during the check-in process. The staff seemed unfriendly! They also made an assumption about my previous tax payment, causing confusion.
