central stay with great amenities

lush greenerymodern roomconvenient locationlimited option
the building facade had appealing greenery. i found the room design modern and very clean. a table with chairs outside the room was a nice touch (i enjoyed my morning coffee there). i particularly appreciated the convenient location and felt very secure throughout my stay.
The breakfast was quite limited with a single option. I prefer to have a choice. i hope they could add more options.
