The renovated hotel is new, stylish and smart-designed. There are a small store (ice cream, instant noodles, beverage, snacks, etc.), coffee desk, and water/ice refill machine in the lobby. Every staff is friendly. The breakfast served from 6 am to 10 am is pretty nice and convenient.

Liked this hotel a lot
Really liked this hotel. Clean, fresh, convenient. The only "negative" is that it's on a hill out back which makes it hard to climb if handicapped.

Don’t stay in room 146. It is across the hallway from housekeeping. At 7am I was awakened by houskeeping staff talking loudly and laughing. I arrived very late and needed to get some sleep and it was impossible.

Adequate at Best
The room itself was very clean when we arrived. But no toilet paper at all in room and we had to get it from the front desk. And the room never got cleaned/ made up during our stay, which was really odd as it seemed like there were multiple cleaning crew on our floor the entire morning until we left.
