It was a pleasant stay although there were issues with booking.com cancelling my reservation and despite assurances that
Pros:

The evening entertainment and attentive staff

The breakfast was decent and varied

The food was very good

The happy hour for club access was good

Cons:

The room was very noisy due to the proximity of the room and the traffic outside.
The rooms could be better equipped I had to use a mirror above the mini bar to use a socket to dry my hair. The "camp" bed places in the bedroom wasn't great either a bed would have been more appropriate.
The bathroom is dated and I had to climb over to get into the bath to have a shower. This would not be good for someone who has mobility issues. The corners of the bathroom weren't clean and grubby in parts..it could do with a rip out and a refresh. In general it was acceptable.
The pool was average and there was hardly any lounges

Pros:

The location was great! It was close to everything, including the metro and tram. I want to especially and genuinely thank Zin Thu, as she made our stay even more comfortable and memorable. She is a great employee who truly cares about guests' needs and comfort (she always brought me a bottle of water as she noticed that I drink one before a meal). Thank you, Zin Thu!

Pros:

Cons:

Dragging your luggage up the steps to the hotel

The stupidity of going through a metal detector every time you entered or left the hotel. Nobody ever checked when bleep sounded, which was every time!
