It was an amazing stay, staff were very kind as well.
Pros:

Breakfast was OK. A lot of selections to choose from.

Cons:

A lot of curry on some breakfast dishes, I would wish they reduce the use of curry on beans and minced meats.

Pros:

Rooms are nice and spacious
Curtains are perfect for sleeping late but have to set alarm for breakfast though 😀
Toiletries are up to standard and if you forget to bring any, it is available at the reception ☺️

Just had an emergency and had to check out earlier of which I forfeited my 3rd night including breakfast but I do understand no refunds 🙏

Cons:

If I didn't like anything at the hotel then I'm ungrateful and should stay at home, period 🙏
