Passable
Pros:

Cleanliness of their rooms are the best ad probably only plus point. Just one water bottle was the only extra thing in the room. Staff were friendly but not skilled or experienced.

Cons:

There is no way contact anyone if you need something. At least a facility to make your own coffee or Tea would be nice.

Poor clenlyness.
Pros:

The location is very close to the temple grounds..

Cons:

Don't be fooled by the images. Clearly, over time, the property has lost its look due to lack of maintenance. Comunal areas weren't cleaned. Both our rooms had live cockroaches, plenty of gecko droppings, and cobwebs in the bathrooms. Though I asked the staff to clean rooms, they weren't bothered much. I had to do it myself in the end. Only 1 working TV channel. We weren't comfortable to order food from this place..

Location wise, very close to the temple grounds but definitely overpriced for the cleanliness.
