Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff is excellent and very cooperative. I had sprained my foot, so the lady at the check-in was kind enough to give us the room at the ground floor. We ordered food from the room service, and the taste was excellent. The prices were also not that expensive compared to food in the nearby restaurants. The entire hotel has this king-era vibes which is just awesome. Parking is a bit limited, but plenty of parking was available outside.
