decent stay overall
spacious room friendly staff central location faulty air conditioning unresolved issue late resolution
The room was quite spacious. its cleanliness was up to standard and i appreciated that. the front entrance staff were friendly, always a plus for first impressions (i always value a good welcome). the location was also pretty central. Getting around was easy.
The air conditioning malfunctioned during my first night. i reported it after dinner around 9pm. the issue remained unresolved despite attempts to reset it. The room stayed warm at 24.5c. eventually, i was moved to another room quite late, around 10:30pm.
