It looks flashy and nice from the outside but housekeeping and service falls very short
Pros:

It's a brand new room with modern interiors.

Cons:

The bed was extremely dirty that I requested to change after reaching at 7PM. Why wasn't it already changed, I don't know. Bathroom rug and the floor carpet outside the room in the corridor were all dirty. It's a hotel, bunch of rules that they don't budge. Food was a very average. No sunlight in the room that was assigned to me. TV has netflix etc but I couldn't sign in. There were only Hindi channels otherwise. I had given my clothes for laundry, even the sweat stains weren't removed.

The hotel has so much potential that I feel it doesn't live up to.

性價比高
Pros:

附近有很大的超市,離市中心也近,位置很不錯。
餐廳的餐點雖然比當地物價貴一些,但非常美味!
有提供桶裝水飲水機與衣服送洗。

Cons:

旅店不好找,在小巷子內,連當地司機都迷路。
走廊有老鼠,跟櫃台反應後很快處理。
