A cozy hotel with kitchenette rooms perfect for families, despite some cleanliness issues. The service was exceptional, especially during check-out. The location, although not central, offers convenience and access to major shopping centers. Overall, the facilities were adequate, but improvements could be made to the rooms' cleanliness.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The room was spacious and had all the basics available, making it really convenient. The service from the manager was outstanding, and the location was central to everything I needed. However, not being able to have dinner on-site was a bit of a downside. The dining experience was fantastic with delicious vermicelli on offer.

The hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms provided all the basics with clean and fresh facilities, but unfortunately, a dirty towel was present. The large bathroom was a plus. The service, specifically during check-out, was commendable, offering room service and housekeeping. The location was convenient, being within walking distance of a major shopping center but out of town. The dining experience with local meats was satisfactory. While the facilities were functional, the price may not fully reflect the overall value for money.
