    I like the spring bed which made my baby sleep comfortable for almost the whole day. The water is clean. The sink is big enough to wash my baby equipment and has table.They give me good location room (no. 202) with window on 1st floor. And I wonder whose the bedroom architect because it's design is compact and cozy yet satisfying for me. Like the half transparent toilet wall. Recommended for budget staying =).

    Loved the location. The hotel was within walking distance to many food places and convenience stores (a couple of them are open 24 hours). For a boutique hotel, it has a pretty modern design and was clean. There's parking lots right in front of the hotel, I believe it's free parking on Sunday and payment is required on other days (if not there's a risk of getting fined). The staff were also friendly and helpful. Definitely worth the price and would come back again!
