I was only passing through when I stayed at this hotel. Lovely breakfast, nice a la carte and great service. The room was clean, had AC and was luxurious. I was aware of the building ‘pit’ it was surrounded with because of other reviews, but still it was surprising how rough the surrounding was. Also not sure if this is or isn’t a good area - apart from the mall (7 mins walk down the road) I didn’t notice anything worth a visit in its direct surroundings. But again, I could be mistaken since I was only passing through.
