The buffet was amazing! Some traditional food some western food. Donuts, smoothies and ice cream! Coffee and lattes and the hotel was extremely clean and safe! You can walk to Universal and it is really close to the metro! We loved our stay here! Oh and an added bonus they had hot dogs and ice cream at night for free! Make sure to pay for the morning buffet though well well well worth it!

The property offered a welcome lounge for everyone staying at the hotel which offered hot beverages, pancakes, hot dogs and beef curry. The room was spacious, although the bathroom was small. Water was provided in the room. The only downside was that there are very few vegetable options for breakfast and none at the welcome lounge.
