Was a three star guest house. Would never go there again. Albeit a good location it is a down market stay!
Convenient location but this is falsely advertised as a 5 star hotel which it most certainty isn’t. Plastic furniture and dusty air con together with tiny lift and lots of stairs are very disappoining
