Liked: Staff & service
Check in was great, efficient and very friendly. The room itself was definitely dated and worn, but clean. The air conditioner in the room, when on, did occasionally make loud buzzing noises which made it difficult to sleep at times. The rainfall showerhead was nice. Overall, it was a decent hotel, good price, and great staff. Would recommend upgrading facilities though (like the aircon and some soundproofing)

I stayed in room 5 during my stay and after every time I had a shower there was a bad smell coming up from the water drainage plug. I told reception and they said that they will talk to someone who will put something down the drains to clear the smell. Once they did this the small was gone. Not nice having this smell in the room after you use the shower. Apart from this it is a nice hotel. Great location. Reception staff very helpful.
