Overall is good except the noise from the pipe

Overall is good. Great location, great interior, everything working properly, clean & spacious, friendly staff too. The only problem that need to improve is that the water piping room is so noisy that we can’t really sleep well if anyone using water upstairs. Those interested to stay here I suggest to request for rooms further from the water piping room. It will be best if it’s not the noisy pipe:
