Very Clean Accommodation with Home Comforts

Very clean and well maintained hotel with friendly staff who served the customers with a service oriented focus and warmth. Rooms were cleaned daily and customer requests were attended to with promptness. The restaurant caters meals and beverages, made to the customer specifications to accommodate dietary needs. The (well maintained) lush and green shrubs which adorn the hotel premises certainly add value to your stay as they not only help to purify the surrounding air but also gives a sense of serenity and a relaxing atmosphere. The lounge and sitting areas are tastefully furnished and maintained. The hotel is within a few minutes walking distance to shops, food outlets and transport.
