Stayed May 2013 Hotel in good location, modern with clean rooms except for the carpet,which was badly in need of a shampoo. If you are arriving from a long haul flight and are looking forward to early check-in this hotel is not for you, a heavy typed notice at the reception clearly enforces managements decision that 2pm is check-in time....

Behind of the hotel is the 24 hours convenience store if you ever need some light food or anything in the middle of the night. Not only that, if you are a coffee lover, you can pay... More

The hotel is in an excellent location - right in the heart of town. So it is very convenient for eating and shopping and travelling to outlaying areas. It is a new hotel - opened only in 2011. The room is of good size, clean and nice. The air-con and water heater are in good working condition. Breakfast is very... More
