Not happy and will not book again.
Pros:

At night, it's hard to sleep because of the loud cars and motor bikes that is burning tyres. The windows should be sound proof to at least minimise the noise outside. Thank you.

Cons:

The location.

Great Location, But Room Cleanliness Needs Improvement
Pros:

The location is a definite advantage, as the hotel is directly across from the shopping centre, making it very convenient.

Cons:

The room was not up to the standard I expected. The bathroom exhaust fan wasn't working, we found a cockroach in our room, and there was mould on the bathroom ceiling. These issues made the stay less comfortable than it should have been.

Parking costs $15 per night, but paying doesn't guarantee you a parking space. When we returned to the hotel, the car park was already full, and I had to squeeze into one of the few remaining spaces with a very low ceiling, which was quite inconvenient.
