The staff at the front gate and desk were very kind. The hotel room was clean. But two women in the loft-top restaurant were a little bit unkind and misunderstood in English.

Great location! Breakfast area/ environment was superb. Wish that there were more hot menu for the breakfast. Services were very much below my expectations, given the price and level of the hotel.
