In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Outdoor spaces to unwind — A sundeck and sun terrace give you places to relax outdoors, and there’s also a garden area with furniture.
  • Practical services for arrivals and departures — The 24-hour reception and express check-in/out make late or early travel easier, and the paid airport shuttle can handle transfers.
  • Social and entertainment options — A shared lounge, game room, karaoke, and live entertainment provide ways to meet other guests or pass the time.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Facilities score is notably low — Guest ratings put facilities at 2.5 out of 10, the weakest category, so expect basic conditions rather than polished amenities.
  • No pets allowed — If you’re travelling with a pet, this property isn’t an option.
  • Room service may be limited — While room service is listed, there’s no mention of a full-service restaurant or in-room dining beyond breakfast.
