A Lovely Overnight Stay – With a Few Funny Moments! 😊
Pros:

I booked this stay for one person through Booking.com and was immediately assisted at reception. I was also asked whether I would be okay with my luggage. Fortunately, I only had an overnight bag, so I managed perfectly well on my own.

The room was beautiful and felt more like a self-catering unit than a traditional hotel room. I was very impressed with the décor — everything was tastefully done. The bathroom was comfortable, and I have to mention the shower: what a powerful shower! I thoroughly enjoyed it. 🚿😊

One thing I did miss, however, was a convenient charging point for my cellphone. I searched the entire room and could only find three-point plugs. So, if you are planning to stay here, remember to bring an adapter if you need one for your phone. Luckily, I eventually realised that I could charge my phone using my laptop. It charged considerably slower, but hey — it worked! 😂

There were two bottles of water in the fridge, and this is where my little adventure began. I struggled to open them. The caps had the type of seal that you are supposed to pull off, but apparently I was stronger than the bottle expected — I managed to break the seal! 🙈

I called reception, and they kindly sent someone to help me. With a fork and me holding the bottle firmly, we eventually managed to get it open. I then thought, “Well, while you are here, let's open the second one too.” Of course, exactly the same thing happened — the seal broke again! 🙈😂 So, another round with the fork and we finally succeeded.

My advice: pack a bottle opener! In fact, I have one on my keyring, but guess where it was? At home. Now it is safely tucked away in my handbag — reserved for a “SOS situation”! 😂

I also enjoyed lunch at the restaurant. I was quite surprised when my starter and main course arrived at the same time. Perhaps the waiters could be reminded that the starter comes first, followed by the main course — unless, of course, they were testing how hungry I was!

Cons:

Maybe a bottle opener in the room as well as a two point plug.

Anew must improve.
Pros:

Not much to write home about.

Cons:

1. The road going there at night is too dark and scary.
2. The bed is old and uncomfortable
3. The aircon is too old and doesn't work properly
4. Some staff are just lazy and sit there doing nothing without helping even with bags. I mean why are they there? No offering of a trolley at least. Poor service
4. The shower is too small that a big person can ever fit in. Anew must take people serious. The furniture is of 1900. Come on Anew. I know it's not all of them but why can't they be standard
5. Fortunately, I didn't order breakfast. I wonder how it could have been
