Excellent
Pros:

I liked the location of the hotel, as it is within walking distance of Sarit Center, which made it very convenient for shopping, dining, and accessing essential services. The area felt safe and well-connected, and being so close to such a vibrant hub saved time on transportation. I also appreciated the ease of finding restaurants, cafés, and supermarkets nearby. Overall, the location significantly enhanced the comfort and practicality of my stay.

Excellent experience
Pros:

Breakfast was exceptional. Rooftop Indian restaurant was great.

Cons:

Watch out for low-hanging light fixtures over bedside tables. Ours gave me a bruised scalp, when I bent over to plug in my phone charger

Très bien
Pros:

Lieu pratique et bien équipé. Chambre spacieuse et confortable.

Cons:
