Untuk percutian singkat memang selesa. Bilik bersih dan luas.
Pros:

Lokasi dekat padang kota, 1st avenue mall dan tempat makanan lain.
Bilik besar, bersih dan selesa.
Pekerja mesra dan ramah.

Cons:

1. Kene naik tangga sampai tingkat 3 utk bilik family room. Yang bawa luggage besar, orang tua dan kanak2 agak menyusahkan.
2. Dalam bilik tak ada peti sejuk, kettle atau free air mineral. Tapi disediakan water dispenser di tingkat 2, macam susah sgt nak dapatkan air minuman 😅
