Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was mixed. The rooms had a few stains on the floor that needed cleaning, and I felt a bit 'trapped' inside, but the staff was friendly. The service was efficient overall, although one senior staff member was quite rude. The location was convenient, near a mall and within walking distance of Mahkota Parade and other attractions. The dining options were limited, but the local food at the coffeeshops downstairs was better. The facilities were decent, but the food quality was lacking.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean, spacious, and contemporary designed, but being on a far end of a long corridor that smelled wasn't pleasant. The service was friendly and mostly prompt, but there was some confusion with foreign staff members. The location was convenient, with easy access to restaurants and shopping malls, although the dining experience lacked variety. Overall, it was a decent hotel with some room for improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were generally clean, and the lift access to the sea view Premiere suite was a nice touch.
