Pros:

We had such a wonderful stay at Limeshine Hotel & Residence. The staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly, and made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. A special thank you to Aadi, the room boy, who was so kind and caring towards my baby. The moment he came to our room, my baby got so excited talking to him and mentioned that he wanted pizza. Even though pizza was unfortunately not available, Aadi still made it happen for him. Thank you, Aadi, for making my baby so happy and feel so loved.
We stayed in room 204, and the view was absolutely unreal. I still can’t believe how peaceful and calming this place was. Everything was perfectly clean — the beds, the toilet, and the entire room. Hygiene 10/10!
The hospitality here is honestly beyond words. Every staff member was amazing, and we truly had such a good night at this hotel. Thank you again to Aadi and all the staff for having us. We will definitely remember this stay.
