"A nice hotel, clean, close to shopping, full service spa for Gentleman. Although the pool gets very crowded with locals, so isn't relaxing. Also very close to Libra Gentleman's Club. Girl friendly."

"This hotel is so not recommended. Why? OK first I got no towel and toothpaste in my room and the bathroom if we take the shower, the water wouldn't go down fast to the drainage so it will create a puddle. Not just that, after I get the towel, the smell of the towel is really not good. The sheet on the bed is also dirty because I can see black stain there. The only good thing about this hotel is only the room is kinda big. "
