The hotel was amazing. I had a good stay and everything surrounding is easily accessible. The Hotel Rooftop is Amazing! However Expedia needs to communicate the booking to the hotel quicker as I arrived and they had no knowledge of my fully paid booking. Only after really searching did the hotel find it. It really dampened my arrival spirits but otherwise all was well.

Stay was ok generally speaking
Generally speaking OK Staff really friendly at the reception Close to supermarkets and restaurants Close to market Bed quality was ok 5min car to victoria harbour Fresh bottles of water given on daily basis Wifi was ok Points needing improvement: Bedsheets not changed on regular basis. Breakfast minimalist - not the freshest croissants, hot food limited choice AC didnt work No international channels on TV + remotes system complicated

great service, AMAZING ROOFTOP!
Really amazing staff and it's a great price for what you get. DON'T LEAVE WITHOUT CHECKING OUT THE ROOFTOP! It's really amazing up there and has awesome views. Location was nice as well...wasn't crazy about the room itself- strange lay out, views to a parking lot, but the shower was one of the best showers I had during my travel- possibly THE BEST, and the blowdryer they provide was also the best.

Smelly night out
Service and check in was good however the room was really small and not very impressive. We had a most awfull smell lingering in the room throughout our stay..like a drain smell. And the noise frm downstairs actually woke me up a few times. Really not impressed at all.

Its a perfectly decent stay, however, don’t go there expecting too much. Also, if you have trouble with soft beds, this is not the hotel for you.
