I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was amazing, right next to the vibrant Leras Park neighborhood. The rooms were comfy and clean, the service was top-notch, and the Asian street food dining was a delightful experience. However, the shared bathroom was a downside for me and the price could've been more budget-friendly.
