    The hotel's location was great, as it was close to both shopping centers and local markets. The complimentary breakfast was also a nice touch, offering a variety of options to choose from.

    The hotel could have improved on its Wi-Fi facilities, as the connection was often weak and unreliable. the air conditioning system could have been better, as it did not work properly from time to time.

    The hotel's location is great, close to bazaars and shopping malls. there is easy access to all areas of the city, including the railway station and city square mall.

    There is a lack of basic amenities, including towels and soap, and the air conditioning is ineffective.
