Reviews from Google
The accommodation is located in the city center. The location and atmosphere are nice and quiet, and it's convenient to get around. The receptionist was incredibly lovely – a truly impressive first impression. As soon as we drove in, she rushed to help us park our car, always smiling and enthusiastic – a perfect 10! She then showed us our room. Oh… her name is Wan, and she's beautiful and charming. Now, about the room: Clean and tidy, with a private swimming pool. The bed is incredibly comfortable, and there are huge, cozy pillows – perfect! A great gimmick was the two chilled cans of Heineken provided for free – my husband loved it! There was also a welcome drink of fruit juice with a brownie, which was delicious. Breakfast: The staff offered a choice of three breakfast options, one per person, and you could have refills if you were still hungry. But when we saw the breakfast set that was served, we were amazed! It was so much food, enough to last us until lunch. Breakfast is served to your room, and you can specify your preferred time. It was amazing, beyond amazing! In short: Amazing! My husband and I were very impressed. We will definitely come back again. Oh, they have an elevator that's like entering a space capsule, it's unique and I liked it! I think it's perfect for couples. It's quiet and peaceful, and the service is excellent. There's a restaurant next door called Chanchara with a great atmosphere and delicious food.
Thanks for all Google reviews that encouraged me to make a great decision! The hotel was the perfect setting for a relaxing vacay. We totally enjoyed our time here with a well-designed swimming pool (the light is automatically operated from 19.00-00.00), a spacious room, especially a clean&comfortable bed — it could pull my soul out of my body. Fast check-in, rich breakfast with unlimited orders. Definitely worth a stay!
The hotel is nice and quiet. The rooms are clean and well-equipped. The front desk staff are incredibly lovely and attentive, always smiling during check-in and check-out. 🥰 There's a rooftop pool 🌃🌠🌌 and the breakfast is delicious and plentiful, very filling! 😋🥗🥪🍳🍶
