For what it was, it was okay. However the premium room was still tiny, very dingy and unclean. There was hair everywhere and rice and peanuts down on the floor. However, the bedding looked clean and everything worked including a fridge and microwave (although the fridge did freeze my stuff as it was up on max!). The location was good, right next to the Dragon Gate and staff were very friendly and nice so points for that! If you want some space, more amenities and a cleaner experience, I’d advise spending a little more but otherwise it did the job for somewhere to sleep
