The hotel had a clean and comfortable atmosphere, truly making it feel like a home away from home. The staff was warm and inviting, creating a friendly environment. However, the dining options were somewhat limited, focusing mainly on a single Chinese restaurant which felt a bit basic. The facilities, particularly the pool area, were nice for relaxation, but I wished for more variety in dining. Overall, a decent choice if you're looking for value for money.
