Shocked when first time entered the lobby room, because the lobby atmosphere is dark, and i feel like in a discotique. M
Pros:

Strategic location, seems like new building

Cons:

The lobby ambience looks like discotique, dark and the lamp colour chosen is weird (purple)

Money shows power
Pros:

The room is spacious but my comments won't change anything.

Cons:

The jug kettle, the AC is not cold and quite far from daily amenities . Should learn to upgrade and be more professional..dirty floor and almost broken jug kettle isn't a good reflection..
