"Important! There is a tax charge only accept cash. Didnt mention when I book the room 3 months ago. Make sure you have enough cash before you go check in.
The window is facing corridor, and corridors are open, you can hear clearly when people in and out.
Still, room is clean, staff are nice."

"Super lots of food options by foot!!!! Bed comfort & amenities can further enhance, no 'DND' signage provide. Hence daily cleaning was done & needed to request for 02 half size towels, which was originally placed in the room upon checking in. "
"Value for the money, its spacious and also clean which is what we are looking for. However, the roads around it are narrow and often gets jammed since they are within walking distance of CIQ. Other than that, will definitely come back and stay! Oh they also have a free shuttle to CIQ, good to check the frequency :)"
