Second stay in this hotel, still feeling happy. Overall good, cleanliness can do better. Not very soundproof, but I’m ok with that.

The hotel was clean and well-maintained. At just over 300 a night, it's a 3-star hotel. The front desk staff can speak Chinese, which was a plus. The soundproofing was excellent, making for a very quiet stay. There's a night market right behind the hotel, a Watsons next door, and a Foo Yuan Tea Restaurant nearby, making breakfast very convenient.

It was surprisingly clean, exceeding my expectations. The creamy shrimp at the seafood restaurant behind it was absolutely delicious!
