非常舒服及清新的酒店🏨 酒店是新落成的，所有配套也很乾淨整潔。如其他的評論，位置在高速公路旁邊，如果不是自駕的話，去其他方唔係太方便。 門口對出有一間24 hours 超市，非常方便。搭的士到美國村大概20分鐘。 非常推薦比自駕的旅客，訂的時候大概 HK，$450 一晚，新酒店，有無邊際泳池，有溫泉，高CP，期待下次。

Nice new hotel, but the beds are extremely hard and quite uncomfortable. The service is really good, though, and the restaurant is decent (better for lunch than breakfast, in my opinion).
