Good place to rest after had a long week work. Im staying for 2days 1 night, love to upgrading bedroom to seaview. Really relaxing. Enjoying Ramadhan buffet with family. Buffet a bit dissapoint bcause not many choice. For the bedroom not clean very well. So many dust on the table and floor (got cockroach eggs too) its very dangerous for those have a baby. Your staff have to check cleanliness before guest check in. And also no wifi coverage. Pls upgrade your hotel more better.

Overall it is was good but the hotel house keeping should improve their efficiency. e.g. They forgot to provide towel until we request. Secondly, we went in the room but the room was not ready. It was the miscommunication between the house keeping and front desk. And, the breakfast is really not so good. We hope hotel will improve it.

VERY BAD experience. 1. Came to check in with a congested lobby. Families with elderly, children and pregnant ladies unattended for 5HOURS, given no explanation or whatsover. All of the receptionist went missing and we were all left in a mystery. At this unprecedented time, the management definitely paid NO REGARDS to the SOP! 2. NO PROPER details of the actual waiting time and rooms available left people mad and bewildered! Children are now crying all over the place. People are screaming all over the place, restless. 3. After 5 HOURS, we learnt that NO QUARRELS, NO ROOM. 4. The rooms were all left uncleaned and that resulted in the delay. It makes no sense to have us wait 5 hours JUST TO CLEAN YOUR ROOMS that we have paid earlier! If you have no Manpower then, outsource. Communicate and explain nicely to customers. 5. Guess what, we had to check out at 12pm, despite checking in 5 hours later. Very unpleasant indeed. No refunds or any compensations made. The room itself is good. The view from room is beautiful but we are mad with the management services. Despite the check in, the extra towel we request for have stain on one out of three. The slippers in the room is lacking of one for twin room. The breakfast choice is limited.

The hotel was nice and pretty. The rooms was cozy. Except that one of the rooms I booked didn't have a cooling air conditioning. It was just blowing air. One huge disappointment was breakfast. I booked rooms with breakfast, but me and my family couldn't have any. I understand it was a peak period, Chinese New Year holiday, but what I do not understand was that the hotel did not prepare itself to handle the high influx of guests staying in the hotel. There were not enough tables, the utensils were no where to be seen, and to top it of, empty buffet sets. And this was when I came down from my room at 8am (breakfast was served at 7-11 am). My family and I had to go out of the hotel to get breakfast elsewhere. But I do wanna give compliments when it's due. I'm grateful to the front office manager for being very accommodating, and polite, to all my requests during my stay.
