Overall would use again. Clean, comfortable and being able to use a decent size pool (even if somewhat shallow) was very
Pros:

Quite location not too far from airport and easy to reach on subway.

Cons:

Noise internally from banging doors from other users and cleaning staff starting early.

Gute Lage! Schönes Zimmer! Netter kleiner Pool! Super Personal!
Pros:

Die Lage war gut, ca. 15 Gehminuten zur MRT. Mit der MRT hat man eigentlich alle Orte gut erreichen können. Das Personal war super. Sie haben mir mit der Wäsche geholfen, obwohl sie selber keinen Wäsche-Service anbieten. Ich habe viele gute Tipps bekommen, um mich in der Stadt zurechtzufinden. Mein Zimmer war ausreichend groß und sauber. Es befand sich so ca. 20 m vom Pool entfernt. Der Pool hätte vielleicht einen halben Meter mehr Tiefe haben können. Trotzdem war ich froh, dass es ihn gab. In Hotelnähe befinden sich viele kleine Geschäfte wo man sich mit Getränken und anderen Sachen eindecken kann. Ebenfalls in der Nähe befinden sich viele lokale Restaurants, wo man für wenig oder auch etwas mehr gut essen kann.

Cons:

Ich war mit allem zufrieden!
