I found the location quite convenient, close to the railway station. The breakfast had a decent selection of both Chinese and Western dishes. I certainly appreciated that.

The gym was not fully functional. A treadmill remained broken for over a week, and no one seemed to fix or replace it. It was annoying. I also thought the rooms looked a bit old. The showerhead was loose.
