fantastic stay with great amenities
great valueroom attendantcomfortable sleeppoor soundproofing
I found the food to be nicely priced. It was affordable and decent. i especially appreciated the hand written note from the room attendant, kamisah b a latiff. the room was clean, and i had a very comfortable sleep.
the soundproofing in my room was poor. i could clearly hear the road sounds and other guests. it made sleeping difficult on my first night, but i eventually adjusted.
