Muy buen hotel en el centro de Bandar Seri Begawan
Pros:

La situación, la amabilidad.

Cons:

Había algunas hormigas en la habitación, pero es normal, debido al calor y la vegetación del pais.

Muy bien ubicado,
Pros:

Muy buena ubicación
Amplia y bien equipada habitación.
Personal muy atento.

Servicio gratuito de traslado para visitar la mezquita más grande (Jame Asr Hassanil Bolkiah) que está a unos 4 km del hotel.

Cons:

Ruido la primera noche, en la habitación 211, por la instalación general del aire (aparte del aire acondicionado individual hay una común, que no se puede desconectar). La habitación 211 está muy cerca de la fuente de ruido, y se oye un zumbido continuo. Me queje y me cambiaron a otra habitación, ya el segundo día, a una habitación sin ningún ruido exterior. De no ser por este incidente mi puntuación sería de 9.

A terrific stay
Pros:

Great hotel in a terrific location. The staff were friendly and helpful. I liked the fact there were water dispensers on each floor and that the hotel offered a shuttle to and from various attractions, including a mosque I wanted to visit. I ate once in Yelo restaurant and really enjoyed the food.

Cons:

The wifi wasn't always great, and the bathroom occasionally smelled a bit of drains.

Great value - but floors cleaning should improve.
Pros:

Friendly staff. Central location. Great on-site restaurant with wide selection of dishes and quick service.

Cons:

Dirty floors (two nights, different rooms - same problem). Next to noisy house road.

Pros:

The location is absolutely perfect! 👍

When I initially made the reservation, I didn’t read the details carefully and ended up booking a room type that wasn't quite suitable for us. However, the front desk staff was incredibly accommodating and willingly upgraded our room on the spot without any extra charge, even providing us with additional amenities. I felt so touched by their hospitality, and I also want to apologize for my own oversight.
