What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Comfortable Sleeping Pods

I recently stayed in a single bed pod within a female dormitory room, and I must say, the beds are incredibly comfortable! Each sleeping area comes with a privacy blind and a fan, which made my stay cozy and personalized. I appreciated the under-bed storage as well, perfect for keeping my belongings secure and out of sight.

Impeccably Clean Facilities

During my 6-night stay, I noticed that the bathrooms were consistently clean throughout the day. There were four shared bathrooms per floor, and I never had to wait to use one. The cleanliness is truly commendable and contributed significantly to my overall comfort.

Great Amenities

I loved the features included within my pod! Each pod is equipped with controls for a fan and light, and it even has an outlet with a USB port, making it easy to charge my devices. Plus, the little shelf and wall net organizer provided extra space for my essentials - very clever design!

Complimentary Snacks

I was pleasantly surprised by the morning offerings! Each day, the hotel provided complimentary coffee and sweet treats, which was a delightful way to start my day. It showed attention to detail and made the overall experience even more enjoyable.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant, with a clean and comfortable environment that made it easy to relax. The amenities were great, especially the well-maintained pool and the spacious rooms. However, the breakfast offerings could definitely use some improvement, and the parking situation was a bit inconvenient. Overall, it felt like a good deal for the price considering the comfort and amenities provided.
