I am jot going beck there...
Pros:

The fact that it near the mall and easy to find.

Cons:

1. When i book via Booking.com I booked for 5ppl (2 adults n 3 kids) including breakfast...
on the app it showed everything was in order. When we get there we were told on their system it shows I only booked for 2adults only, children were excluded, n I had to pay for their breakfast again. That only pissed me off.
2. The noise. I don't know if Guests are not told about noise. Ppl would walk, shouting n laughing on the caridos non stop, worse some would play music very loud, around 1am😡
3. My rooms ddnt have fridges, no water provided
4. The showers, yooooooo .. Ai no maan no
