일단 이곳의 위치가 부킷 빈탕 한복판이라 위치가 너무 좋고, 호텔 직원들도 정말 친절합니다. 또한 오후 3시~5시 사이에 무료 간식이 제공되며 미니바에ㅔ서 음료가 매일 무료 제공되는 점은 큰 장점이라고 생각합니다. 단점이라면 호텔 시설이 전반적으로 노후화가 진행중인 것으로 보여 적당한 시기에 시설 개보수가 필요해보입니다.

Very nice hotel and will definitely come back again
Staff, location and breakfast were excellent. The rooftop bar and pool is a great spot to have a drink as the sun goes down. We did have an issue with a moldy shower head which the staff replaced straight away, otherwise a perfect stay.
