10/10 Exceptional

the hotel has a very good location, comfortable, clean, spacious room and tea kitchen. The room staff, the bathroom staff and the breakfast staff and the staff at the entrance are very nice and helpful. The reception is mixed, the quality of service depends a lot on the receptionist, in general a little more kindness would not hurt, it would greatly improve the overall image and atmosphere of the hotel.

The staff are friendly and helpfull. A special commendation to Khoo Min Jie for his outstanding services, he checked us in, gave us information brochures and other information about places to dine, and notify us when the room was ready. Most of all he went out of his way to help us when we contacted him even though he was already on leave.He presented Ascott well with his service and made us enjoyed our stay.
