Near a strip club city looked dirty and run down Staff office, which we went to 4 times regarding issues was disorderly and cluttered. One of our rooms had not been cleaned, so we had to get another room. When we needed help or information, the staff was casual and unprofessional.

Everything here is great! We lost hat and sunglasses, they found for us. Really appreciate! Only one thing needed to improve, which is the faucet in the wash room always turns lesser water by itself. But that is not a big issue. We still want to give this place a five star rating.

If you’re looking for function over service, this is the place for you. Check in is via self service screens, where you’re given a card to operate the lift and open your hotel room door. There is plenty of shared space on the ground floor to work or meet new people. There are vending machines for snacks and drinks. All of it self operated. The room itself was really good value and plenty of space for just me! The bed was comfortable, the sheets and towels were clean and the location of the hotel was perfect. I would highly recommend for any young solo travellers staying for a couple of days.

You need to tap your card key to lock your door -- unlike every other hotel in the world where you just close your door. Needs bigger bathrooms and they could provide more bath products such as soap and shampoo / body wash.
