Great hotel in a superb location. Surrounded by popular attractions, shopping malls, restaurants and near main train station. Standard room is a little small. Lobby could add a weighing scale for luggage. Pool lock is not on time. We stayed 3 nights and were fed same boring breakfast everyday. More cleaning staff needed instead of discouraging guests to clean their rooms. Overall a worthy stay.

Overall my stay was good. I liked the pool as it was great to do laps. I found the breakfast a bit disappointing. The scrambled eggs were awful. They had no selection of coffee ( no decaf, lattes or cappuccino). Also as a non meat eater, they didn’t have much variety of cheeses to select from. The porridge was very good as well as berry compote
