      This hotel is a real gem! the location is fantastic - just a short walk away from the bustling Chowrasta and other popular attractions. Secondly, the staff here are incredible - always friendly and with a smile on their faces, they really made me feel welcome. Lastly, the rooms are spotlessly clean and well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. Oh, and did I mention the super comfy beds? great value for money and attention to detail.

      The only small downside was that I could occasionally hear some noise from other guests, but it didn't really bother me.

      The hotel is located in a central area with easy access to tourist attractions and numerous good restaurants. the rooms are spacious and very clean with nice decoration. the staff is friendly and helpful in providing information about the local area. In the hallway, there is a water dispenser to use.

      The soundproofing is mediocre and guests can hear noise from the hallway and other rooms at times.

      We loved the location of the hotel as it was near to all strategic places. The famous makan places and tourist attractions were just a walking distance away. Moreover, the hotel was clean and with great facilities. The staff here was very friendly and helpful.

      There was nothing we didn't like.
