We observed a weird smell after turning on the ac unit. Since we are tired we didn’t get a chance to talk with front desk about it. Other than that everything is good. Breakfast is really nice. Staff services are really good.

The room we lived in is right next to a busy road. It’s so noisy at night and not allowing you to sleep. We stayed up whole night and complained to the front desk the following morning but she just shrugged off and said it was designed by mistake at build without considering the closeness to the busy road. Nothing she could do and no compensation offered.
