Se non fosse per il cattivo odore, sarebbe un’ottima soluzione
Pros:

Posizione, personale molto accogliente

Cons:

Purtroppo la cucina emana un forte odore che satura le zone comuni e in special modo le camere che sono sopra la cucina stessa, di prima mattina si viene svegliati dall’odore forte persistente, assolutamente inaccettabile

Comfortable accommodation at walking distance from Village Market
Pros:

Nice room. Nice staff. Nice location near Village Market. Good value for money.

Cons:

The pool being under maintenance was quite a disappointment. It was one of the reasons I had picked this property over another one.
I had a few malfunctions in the room but the staff was very helpful in solving them.

Convenient place to stay
Pros:

I loved the location, its in a safe area not far from the UN. There is also a shopping mall nearby which is very convenient. Staff members were great, from gatekeepers to reception to kitchen staff—all of them were nice and always helping out. I really appreciated that about the property.

Cons:

The breakfast is very basic.
