The service of the staff was fantastic and they were very friendly and helpful. However, shower caps, slippers, toothbrush and paste were not provided. No fridge. A mirror and a dustbin are found in the bathroom and not found in the bedroom. No lift. There are 3 levels - ground, first floor and second floor. The hotel offers free transport to the airport.

The hotel used to be very nice, but NOT ANY MORE
Airport transfer was not provided, instead I was told to use Grab to the hotel, and airport transport for late night and early morning costs so expensive that it's not worth staying this hotel. Wifi also not usable, which betrays the ad on Hotel.com. Hotel's facilities are outdated overall, not at all comfortable. I used to like this hotel and have been a loyal customer for more than 6 years, but since the hotel management changed a few years ago, their service started deteriorate. I don't think I no longer stick to this hotel. The hotel has lost one loyal customer.
