unhelpful response poor towel

the location was okay and close to the mall.

The staff seemed intent on extracting more money. They tried to give me a 'special deal' for early check-in, but it wasn't needed. the room i got had a bothersome smell that wouldn't go away, and their response didn't really help. towel quality was poor, and the pillow options were limited, which really messed up my neck.

fantastic stay, convenient location!

power sockets luggage storage stocked shop

I found international power sockets in my room, i needed no adapter! free luggage storage lockers were big enough for my suitcase. That was super useful. the shop sold essentials which was great, i could grab whatever i needed there.

The fan in the toilet wasnt working which meant no air circulation. All the odour would get to the room!
