"Great stay again!"

8.0

Location is great. Staff are overall excellent. Food is good at breakfast and in the cafe. The young lady who checked us out (sorry, forgot hername) was super friendly too. She is an asset to your front office team!

Check in was less than average, still friendly but the lady didnt add my ihg number on to my booking unlike last time. They room we had previous stay was must better than this stay too.

早餐选择很多,大陆人可以选择到合适口味的餐食, 住宿房间挺大的,洗澡水压也很大 住宿的地理位置的话,走到加雅街大概1.5KM,但是在大太阳天下,还是有些难走的
