A very well maintained hotel with clean rooms and service”

Pleasant experience for a few nights. Stay was very commendable with the rooms being very clean. Room windows are not able to be opened i noticed and it would have been better if they could be opened to have some fresh air. Morning breakfast was very nice with reasonable options and good value for money. Service was hassle-free. A big shout-out to the Bangladeshi room attendant who greeted me very politely with a warm smile and he was very jovial and even learned to greet me in my language :). Hotel is located conveniently in the city center with plenty of taxi pick-ups outside the hotel. Frontline staff are knowledgeable and ready to help at any requests and they were very courteous in their approach. Definitely will come back here the next time. :)

Perfect hotel for budget travellers”

We stayed in their Standard Room at 18th floor (smoking room with double bed). We found the room quite cozy with all basic necessities. The only thing I didn't like was the room service, they took ages to refill water bottles or forgotten one or two things if asked for multiple things. However, the facilities at the hotel compensated all minor grievences we had. The hotel offer a 24/7 gym with suana and a swimming pool. I wish the pool didn't close at 7pm (also it was quite deep). We enjoyed our time at the Cyclone Club where we ordered Sheesha and some soft drinks. Over all, I would say the hotel offers great value for money and I will definitely come back.
