8.4/10 Very good! (1,006 reviews)
This is a perfect hotel for party lovers who don't plan to sleep. You can hear the music from the parties outside inside the room. The party music lasted like until 2-3 am. The WiFi signal is rather weak, just barely enough for text messaging. Location is perfect for those who enjoy hiking and walking up and down slopes. It's not the hotel's fault, but don't trust google map saying that it only takes 15 minutes to go to the train station. It takes longer if you are not used to hiking.

Great location, great price, great flat layout. Friendly and helpful staff. Im a difficult sleeper (think princess and the pea) I found the mattress a bit too hard and the pillows a bit too soft. But the lunar eclipse could also have impacted my sleep.
