Review summary

Based on recent reviews

decent stay with a couple of drawbacks

clean room friendly staff faulty wifi salty food

i found the room to be quite very comfy and tidy. the staff were also friendly and helpful . the hotel was beautifully maintained, a detail i appreciated.

The wifi did not work in my room. i also spotted a lizard there. the food was a bit too salty for my taste. It could use some adjustment. plus, the hand jet in the bathroom wasn't working properly.
