Nightmare
its totally a nightmare, the room is very old, dusty and the condition is poor. The desk is like an antique that no one clean it for ages. I am sure they don't change bed sheet for long time that you can see dust on your bed... Heater cannot change temperature and its always 30c in winter time, can't even sleep with such a hot environment ! Staff is rude and not helpful, we were just asking for route but her attitude was very rude, a very bad staying experience.

Will not stay in this hotel again
The room looks old, floor tiles and wall paint were dirty and fitted with old furniture. Was surprised that the toilet without door which is inconvenient for the family since there were 4 of us staying in a family suite . After requested to change room, they had accommodated me with a better room with door in toilet. Location wise very good as walking distance to shopping areas and train stations.

One specific staff in blonde hair had extremely bad service. She didnt answer any of our questions. She didnt even want to help on anything we tried to explain. The air condition at our room kept turning off early in the morning, for the 6full days. Extremely bad. Worst hotel i ever been among the same stars. HOTEL 8 Hours was much much better.

Good location
This is not the first time to book this hotel. Location is very convenience. Many restaurants, shops, market and convenience stores are nearby. Just a bit noisy at night maybe I live in lower floor. Overall it's good, I will go again and recommend to my friends.

Great area, not so great hotel
There was one room with two beds, a sofa (right neXtvto the beds so no leg room to actually use the couch), there was a huge "box" dominating one end of the room which turned out to contain the super high tech toilet. I hope you and anyone you are staying are happy with see through toilet doors and lighting so dim you have to keep the door open to pee! There's a bathroom that consist of a giant spa bath which takes up half the room (Ivsay room loosely because there is no door so it's more like an alcove). The shower pressure was great, but the shower head was terrible and only partially worked on one side. The sink and vanity take up another huge chunk of space the the room. There is a thin desk running along one wall that hardly has room to work on because there is an archaic PC computer for guest use on it. There is no privacy or space to move around and spending too much time in this room makes you stir-crazy. The only amenities are a tiny fridge, a safe we couldn't open, slightly melted hairdryer and a kettle. Towels were supplied in good order. The housekeeping was very good. The line ons of low quality but we never saw dirt nor dust nor bugs. So if all you are after is a clean room to rest your head, this is fine. Everything has lights, so much so that we had to go around and tape sheets of paper over the large glowing green screens just so we could sleep - bring an eye mask! They advertise laundry facilities but don't expect them.
