    We were there for the April 3 earthquake. Very surreal. Glad the building and people were ok.

    Limited food choices nearby and having to get to town and back by taxi. Not sure if hotel is on the bus route? Bit inconvenient because only 1 all-purpose soap dispenser in shower area and none for sink area.

    Nearby esplanade is a good place for walking and enjoying sea view. Laundromat is 3 min away, very convenient. Also night market is 15-20 min walk away. Free snacks in dining hall and water dispenser on each floor. Also, good that hotel is environmentally friendly.

    Everything looks perfect. There is a small balcony in our room. Breakfast is simple but ok. Limited space for carpark. The hotel looks Clean and the beds are comfy. Value for money.

    More vegetarian options at breakfast would have been nice - there was meat in a lot of the dishes. The reflective film on the balcony windows makes it a little akward to see outside, as does the angle the window opens at. I know that's not really something that can be changed, but the window opens towards the intersection, rather than towards the park and ocean. Also, there's no hand soap. The only soap available is the multi-purpose liquid soap/shampoo mounted in the shower. There was some renovation happening in the building, which I wasn't notified of. Luckily I woke up just before it began anyway!

    Very spacious, and very good soundproofing. I didn't hear the traffic noise at all. Easy to find parking in the area. The staff were helpful in pointing out where to park. Breakfast hours were good for me, and I thought the hotel is well-located between the main city area and the outer edge of town.

    The so-called balcony is actually part of the building's exterior, with lights controlled by the hotel rather than controlled by the guest. It's really not part of the room's facilities. Not really an issue, just a point of clarification.

    The receptionist was friendly and always willing to help. Breakfast was good and Parking was close to the hotel. Room is spacious.

    They didn’t clean the room but just changed towels (didn’t even empty the bins) when we asked & left the key at the front desk. The location is a bit far from the restaurants, bars, night market etc. The staff hardly spoke English.

    The room: comfortable beds, good shower, and there’s a water dispenser in the hallway.

    The facility was a bit old, but the stay was still comfy and enjoyable.

    The place's location is great. We took a walk to the nearby park with a long beach front after check-in. Breakfast buffet was standard and did the job. Eateries and a laundromet were all within a few minute walk away and convenient. Parking was basically just around the building and fcfs, but we didn't have a problem. The room has a covered balcony that looked out to the sea. An open balcony would have been better for the view, but I guess street noise would have discounted that experience greatly.

    The balcony light is crazy bright and cannot be controlled or turned off - it automatically times out at 10:30. So weird.
