Adequate stay near the railway
convenient location luggage service clean room ineffective air conditioning limited towels limited food
The location is quite convenient for train travel. The hotel provides luggage service directly to and from the train. I found the room to be clean.
The air conditioning was not effective upon arrival. It took several hours for the room to cool down adequately. I also found a lack of readily available towels at the pool area. The restaurant offered a dinner buffet, but the food selection was limited near closing time.
