6.0/10

The hotel's location was excellent, allowing for easy walking access to various attractions. However, the rooms needed a proper cleaning as there was a noticeable stench of urine and dirt, which was concerning. The service was friendly but had some issues with communication and missing items. The dining area was not properly set up, with limited options available. The proximity to Central railway station was a positive aspect, but the unexpected holding fee left a skeptical impression.

The hotel has a great location, just a block from Central Station, and close to good dining options. The rooms are modern with beautiful furniture but lacked proper cleanliness standards in some areas. The service was a bit slow and could be more attentive. The dining experience was average, and the hotel feels more like a hostel with private rooms.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms are brand new with beautiful CEO style armchair and a large, comfortable bed. The marble toilet and shower area is spacious and features a two-person shower. However, there was noticeable dust on the bed's headboard and some old stains on the sheets.

Service

5.0

The service was lacking in some aspects. It took a while to get a bath towel, and the staff seemed preoccupied with other tasks. The response time was slow, and some requests went unanswered.

Location

The location is excellent, just a block away from Central Station, making it convenient for transportation and close to good dining options. However, some aspects of the facilities were not up to standard, like the bathroom lacking heating/cooling control.

Dining

6.0

The dining experience was basic, mainly consisting of fresh cream cakes in the room. The setup felt more like a place to prepare tea for breakfast rather than a proper dining area.

Facilities

The hotel lacks some essential facilities and feels more like a hostel. The cleanliness in bathrooms was a concern, with reports of dirt, unpleasant odors, and even vomit on the floor.

5.0/10

The hotel had beautiful private dining tables and a well-stocked mini bar, but unfortunately, the ensuite was unclean, and the toilet seat was completely off its hinges, making it uncomfortable. Sleeping on makeshift mattresses felt like a kids' slumber party, which was not ideal.

The room had a beautiful private dining table and a fully-stocked mini bar, but the ensuite was very unclean, and the toilet seat was off its hinges, leading to discomfort. Sleeping on the floor on mattresses felt like a kids' slumber party.

Service

5.0

The staff had communication issues and appeared rude and inexperienced in handling credit card payments professionally. Additionally, there was a privacy concern as someone could see who was taking a shower. They were unhelpful and insisted on double payment despite deductions from my account, which was frustrating.

Location

5.0

The hotel was in a run-down and dirty area, lacking proper upkeep and communication on available amenities. Finding the hotel was challenging and time-consuming, taking me an hour to locate. However, it was a relatively cheap stay, approximately a 6-minute walk from Central Station, and close to good dining options.

Dining

5.0

The dining area had a private table where one could prepare breakfast, but the experience was subpar. The grilled fish was the only highlight, and the food seemed limited and basic. The price was included, but the overall dining experience was underwhelming.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities were disappointing overall, with unclean and poorly maintained rooms, showcasing a lack of attention to detail. The value for money was questionable given the substandard conditions.
