Average. Room was nice but I wouldn’t stay here again.
Pros:

The room was a great size, clean & very comfortable. Breakfast was lovely with a fantastic buffet. Staff were friendly & efficient - although no English at all - google translate was very helpful! There was a nice pathway for a good walk or run along the water nearby. Very reasonable cost in comparison to hotel costs in Australia.

Cons:

I was woken by the smell of stale cigarette in my room, I assume coming through the air conditioning vents. The hall ways beyond the foyer on my floor were not air conditioned and also smelled of stale cigarette.
It was in the airport district which is quite a way from the actual city. If I had more time this would not have been such a problem, but as I was there for an overnight long layover with my flight there wasn’t a lot around without getting a taxi. Wifi at the hotel was terrible, 4G and 1 or 2 bars only so couldn’t connect to internet at all successfully.
