Waste of money, rather go elsewhere.
Not so good, Shower very tiny sacred to move around in shower because one side soap dish taking unnecessary space, shower door very difficult place, the main door of bathroom don't close no privacy at all. Aircon making noise couldn't sleep, staff loading inside the passage making loud noise, talking super loud and disturbing guest, when you enter hotel no one is sitting in front sometimes have to wait. Overall not good.

Good short stay
We arrived too early to check in but the staff were friendly and brought us a welcome drink. The room was big enough and the bed was very big and comfortable. The location of the hotel is not the greatest and there is not much to do in the immediate area. However this did not bother us as we did not spend much time there and there are many places to visit a short drive away. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful and overall it was a good stay.
