This hotel is a gem! The location is superb, right in the city center and very close to a 24-hour convenient store and the shopping mall. The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the service was exceptional. The homemade pizza in the dining area was a delight. However, the facilities could use some updating, and the price might be on the higher side for some travelers.

The hotel is in a prime location, very near to the city center and next to a shopping mall, making it convenient for shopping enthusiasts. The rooms were spacious and modern but lacked soundproof windows. The service was excellent with a very friendly staff. However, dining options were limited to assorted muffins, which could be improved. The facilities were great overall, offering a luxurious experience but at a slightly higher price point for some amenities.

The hotel is in a prime location, very near the shopping mall and conveniently close to a 24hr convenient store. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but there are no soundproof windows. The service is excellent, and the dining options focus on delicious poultry dishes. However, the facilities could be more extensive, and the dining area lacked variety in the menu options.
