Disappointing.... don't be fooled
Pros:

Close enough to city centre with a 10mins walk however if you're a solo female traveller like myself then remain vigilant around the area and walk to and from the city centre.

Cons:

I was supposedly upgraded to a city view room with miniatures included however i was failed to even have the basics in this so called upgraded room. Air-conditioning.... there was non. There was a fan. The mini hair shampoo and body wash was enough for anyone with short hair not someone stopping 2 nights with long hair. The room was extremely dusty. The city view was the roof of the restaurant located on the ground floor

I will never stay here again.
Cons:

The room was too small and felt so congested I was really disappointed with my stay at this hotel. The room had no air conditioning and it was unbearably hot the entire night. Me and my partner had no sleep because the room felt stuffy and uncomfortable. For the price paid, I expected basic comfort at the very least. Definitely would not stay here again. The fan that was provided was so small and hardly had any air coming out of it.

Don't rely on getting anpool, despite the advert
Pros:

Clean, new-ish interior

Cons:

The only reason we bookes this hotel was to use the pool. Thw pool closed 5 mins after we arrived and was closed on the next day entirely.

We had 2 yoing kids you were sold on the pool use. There was NO pool times or notification the pool would be closed on the Monday or at 4:40 pm the day we arrived.

Took rhe shime off the holiday break.
