Overall if needing a place to put a head down to sleep and no other place is available, this place will suffice. However, this place would not be my choice in the future due to the conditions of the room facility, limited breakfast, and no laundry facility as advertised. Room was dusty, bathroom drain did not drain well at all during showers and looked up to my ankles. I had to wipe down multiple weird brown spots around the walls doors, handles, table, chair. Entry carpet was not vacuumed. Positive, good supply of toiletries, water bottles, fresh eggs, bread.

It is centrally located and is close to tourist spot and amenities like 5.18 memorial park, supermarket, and many good restaurants. The building is clean and reasonably well maintained. The room was pretty clean. I have found staffs very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was pretty decent too. It is a great business hotel and I would definitely return to stay.
