For my first stay here, I booked a junior suite. It was extremely spacious. Everything was in good condition. Only the satellite reception on the TV in the bedroom was terrible. And the air conditioning was a bit old and therefore difficult to regulate and loud. A later stay in the standard room was also pleasant. The room was of course much smaller and you had to share the kitchen with 3 other parties. But you are not allowed to cook there anyway. There was a kettle and a refrigerator in the room itself. The bathroom in the standard room is so small, however, that you can barely turn around in it and unfortunately it was already starting to grow mold. The modern air conditioning was nice, which I would have liked in the junior suite as well. The staff were friendly throughout. But the fact that you still have to request room cleaning separately is somehow no longer quite up to date after the end of the Corona pandemic. Breakfast can be booked for an additional charge. I didn't, so I can't say anything about that. I booked another night here in a few days. The hotel has a few parking spaces in the inner courtyard. However, during my stays, these were always occupied. However, you can park on the street or directly across the street in the mall parking lot.

I really wanted to like this hotel. It’s near the airport, junior suites gives you a living room and you can close your bed room door for privacy. Non-suites have bedrooms and private restrooms but shared living rooms with other 2 rooms. There’s no cafe or resto, it’s plated breakfast served in your room. Service is fast and friendly. Receptionists are super stars, and housekeeping staff are helpful and efficient. Beds and pillows we’re comfortable, and the hotel design was nice. Cons though are - smelly drain/sewage, aircon at full blast and it was still warm, WiFi is slow but tolerable, Globe signal weak, you need to take a tricycle 10-15 minutes away to get to a good resto, water heater adequate but not fully functioning, they ran out of replacement towels and linens on our second night, I had to request for toilet paper and complimentary water for the second day. Overall, it’s an adequate hotel but needs facilities maintenance and better supplies. They lucked out on their staff as they are really amazing, intelligent, efficient, and dependable.
