A decent stay downtown

helpful staffconvenient locationsmooth processhigh noiseuseless deskawkward layout
The location was convenient. It was near popular attractions. Elvie and Ope were very helpful during our checkout. They made the process smooth (much appreciated).
The noise level was an issue. I could hear people walking on the street and conversations. It never seemed to stop. The layout had a desk in the sitting area. It was useless because of a big box for TV controls.

The location is very convenient. The front desk staff was helpful. The hotel bar provided a great spot for a late-night drink. I enjoyed the live music there too.
The bartender was rude to me and my friends!

a mixed bag, really.

thin wallsuncleaned floors
The noise at night was really annoying. I think a bar nearby had music going until quite late. the walls are thin, i could hear everything. also. Housekeeping seemed to forget about refilling the soap and tissues in my room, they made the bed but the floors were never cleaned. i even left some tissues on the floor to test it, and they were still there after they 'cleaned'.

A few issues experienced

convenient locationnice bedgood showerconstant bathroom fanunresolved issueintermittent aircon
The location had great access to shops and restaurants. The bed was nice. The shower worked good.
The bathroom fan ran constantly. The reception sent someone to fix it, but he couldn't do anything. The aircon unit turned on and off during the night. Reception said it was meant to do that.
