Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I booked this hotel specifically because the description mentioned baby crab, which turned out to be completely false—there were none. To make matters worse, the electricity went out for a few hours during our stay, which was incredibly inconvenient and uncomfortable. Overall, very disappointed with the misleading information and poor facilities. Would not recommend.
