Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Rooms can be basic — Some rooms lack air conditioning (fan-only options) and others are compact, especially the Standard Single Room. Decor and fittings are dated in places.
- Service can be inconsistent — While many praise the staff, the overall service rating is slightly below average, suggesting occasional lapses.
- Hotel is older and no-frills — Being a 2-star property, amenities are limited. No pool, no business center, and the fitness center is basic.
- Some noise from central location — Though many rooms are quiet, the central location near transport hubs could mean street noise in some rooms.
