We stayed at a wheelchair accessible room for a night with Golden Hotel, although we initially written a request for no wheelchair accessible room. When we asked for a change of room, we were told the rooms are fully booked, perhaps due to the Chinese golden week. The area is pretty much accessible, just a few mins drive to nearby mall, supermarket, asian mart. The carpark can be a bit of limited space.

We really enjoyed our two night stay in the wheelchair accessible rooms. I booked two rooms for family members. Fully accessible, well maintained and the staff very lovely. Walkable to many restaurants and shops plus only ten minutes to airport. Thank you for having us. I recommend staying here.
