Breakfast was very good but a little bit expensive. The hotel is good for families with kids and people that want to relax. It is quiet and located in a good area. Just one staff in the lobby area was kind of rude when I asked her about something I didn’t know.

Breakfast was ok apart from having the same dishes every day, need to mix it up a bit more, especially with the nice satay food which they only served once while we were there. My room was large and clean, but a bit dated. Staff were relatively friendly and pool access room (garden view) was lovely.
