Great view, easy access. Came to stay for a cardio health check up at Island Hospital (by grab around 6-10 rm). The breakfast food not many options and mostly carbs, the real protein is scrambled eggs. A few restaurant options around walking distance. Very clean rooms, have wifi, very very cold ac, bathtub, but no shampoo/toothbrush+toothpaste/soap so bring your own or by from next door. 100RM deposit (will be given back when checkout).
