Grand Central Medan

Grand Central Medan
3.0 star property
Medan
6.0 out of 10, (1 review)
"The room was a bit dated. The aircon was noisy but it helped drown out the sound of prayers from the adjacent mosque at 4:30am as there was inadequate sound proofing. For the price (cheap) it was ok, but it’s not what I would call grand, nor is it clear what it is central to. If I needed to be up early and was ok with not wanting anything flashy, I would stay there again, but if I wanted to sleep in or have something more luxurious, I would not."
