Cleanliness
8
Rooms are frequently described as clean, but multiple reports of cigarette smell in corridors and some dirty public areas (underground lobby, coffee area) lower the score.

9.5
Service is consistently praised — friendly, professional and helpful staff (specific praise for receptionists Milano and Addy), attentive during long stays.
Location
8.2
Mixed reports: convenient for train station and some local points, but several guests find it remote from downtown/shopping and note unpleasant surroundings in some areas.
Room Quality
9.2
Rooms are described as spacious, comfortable and well-maintained for long stays; some mentions of worn items (rug) and older hotel areas temper the praise slightly.
Amenities
8.6
Gym and pool are reported as well-kept; however there are complaints about the underground lobby cleanliness and some worn fixtures.
Value for Money
9
Multiple guests explicitly state good or excellent value (including a month-long stay reporting great value), so value is rated highly.
Food and Beverage
7.9
Breakfast is frequently praised as good/sumptuous, but there are notable concerns about the halal claim (kitchen also prepares pork) and occasional dining-area cleanliness issues.
Overall Experience
10

Fantastic and had a nice time.
Pros:

Good and fantastic location. Not far from the train station.

Cons:

Need to clean their underground lobby. That was where the cab dropped me to enter into the hotel and it was quite messy.
Also needs to change the rug in the room.
