Cosy stay at the two bedrooms apartment, clean and good location with nearby supermarkets.
Pros:

Very convenient location with supermarkets nearby. Two bedrooms apartment was clean, hotel staff were helpful and friendly.

The glass doors to the main bedroom in the two bedroom apartment, which the hotel should consider to change for privacy.

地理位置优越，家庭房入住体验好。
Pros:

优点：酒店位置优越，前台可以订当天的追光活动。酒店房间是2室2厅，可以自己做饭，对面就是超市，住的非常舒服。
缺点：住的房间在马路斜对面，拖着行李走过去有点吃力，而且没有电梯。第二天坐跨境巴士，需要先拖行李走到酒店大堂，再继续往前走到巴士站，考验体力。

Cons:

无
