10/10 Excellent
"This property is well maintained. It looks like a recent renovation. The room is very spacious and clean. We stayed on 1st floor. Even the window faces the parking, they put decorative film on the glass to create a view. It’s smart to keep the light but protect the privacy. Great. The breakfast selection is good enough to start a good day!! Love this place!!"
