Commendable bathrooms with stable water supply
A lot of guests liked the shower because of its great pressure and stable hot water supply. The bathrooms' sizes are also enough for the guests to have decent baths. In addition, the bathrooms are spotlessly clean and do not have weird odours.

Excellent soundproofing system
The beds are so cosy and peaceful according to many guests. Despite the hotel's close proximity to points of interest, there was negligible external noise. Even those guests who stayed near the elevators did not complain about the noise.

Wireless Internet access is slow and patchy
Some guests said that all they got was poor Internet signals. However, others said that the Wi-Fi was fine because even though it was not that fast, the connection was stable most of the time. Thus, you are advised to subscribe to mobile data plans for more convenience.
negative:
Corridors and some rooms seem gloomy
According to some guests, the rooms and corridors are a bit gloomy. The lights on the rooms were still enough for them to read properly, though.
negative:
Room temperature can be too cold at times
A few guests said that their rooms were too cold because the heating system did not work. Others said that the air conditioners had minor leaks. Upon notification, it was a good thing that the staff was alert in fixing these problems.
