Would not use again.
Pros:

Clean.

Cons:

I couldn’t stand how humid those rooms were. Aircon wasn’t working well, the lowest setting you could put was 18 degrees. Awful to sleep in. Rooms were always humid and the windows were restricted. Wouldn’t trust this hotel again. I woke up at 5am overly hot and had to sit next to the window to cool with actual fresh air a bit, which was hard with the restriction.

Cons:

Bed mattress not very comfy which seemed out of line with all other facilities. Otherwise room standard very good.
