To say the rook is basic would be a major understatement. The aircon was more like a heater. I imagined myself in China in 1980. I gave it an hour and left for another hotel. If you are desperate during a typhoon and this is the last room in the city, then maybe. Otherwise avoid. Staff was very friendly and they tried./b

Hotel is convenient to airport, has a lovely pool and friendly staff. The hotel description includes a restaurant and pool bar - these were closed during our stay (Feb 2025). Our room had no view and looked into a narrow corridor making our room dark. The room itself was comfortable and quiet. The staff were very friendly but the room was overpriced compared to others in the area with full service restaurants/pools.

This property is apparently waiting to be pronounced dead. The only bright spot wa the OJT staff who are doing the best that they can with the hand that was dealt them. This hotel even ran out of cold water to buy. Knowing that every room doesn't have a mini fridge. We had to complain aboru the room cleaning and the kitchen was only used twice in a 6 day stay. When we arrived the pool didn't work and they have the skeletal remains of a basketball court. Like I stated it seems like it just waiting to be declared dead.
