Overall experience was good. They have cute rooms. We stayed at their nee building which not that far from the main one. The only cons is there’s no lift so if you are carrying heavy and big luggages, it will be a challenge. We were assigned a room at the 4th floor but the man at the reception helped us carry our luggage when we checked out. Don’t know his name though but thank you 😊
