I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location is fantastic, with plenty of restaurants and a mall nearby. The room was clean, but quite small and not exactly luxurious. I did appreciate the security for parking, but the service left a lot to be desired, especially during check-in. Overall, it's decent for a budget stay but not without its downsides.

We had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location was fantastic, with many eateries and Sutera Mall within walking distance. The rooms were clean enough for a quick stay, but you shouldn't expect any soundproofing or luxury. Unfortunately, our initial check-in was a nightmare due to poor management; I certainly wouldn't call the service friendly or accommodating. Despite the good location, the noise at night and some unpleasant smells made it difficult to fully enjoy our stay.

The hotel offers a decent stay with its clean rooms and great location surrounded by eateries and a mall. However, I found that noise from nearby areas can be quite distracting, especially during the night. While it serves as a good value for money, it would benefit from a bit of renovation and improvements in some areas, such as noise insulation and room conditions.

My stay at this hotel was quite disappointing due to some major mismanagement and the poor condition of the rooms. I was shocked when my suite was unavailable and the staff offered no assistance. On the positive side, the location is surrounded by eateries, and the Wi-Fi was quite strong. However, I cannot recommend this place based on my experience.

The hotel is a decent and clean place, surrounded by a variety of restaurants and shops in the Sutera area. While the rooms are well-maintained and offer good value for money, the noise from the nearby kitchen exhaust and a club can be quite disruptive at night, which might deter some guests from returning. Overall, it’s a good choice for travelers looking for convenience but may not be ideal for those seeking peace and quiet.

I had a really frustrating experience at this hotel. While the location was convenient and the surrounding area had some great eateries, the service was incredibly rude and unhelpful. My family was placed in a room that felt more like a stable than a hotel, and the lack of cleanliness was alarming. It's not a place I would recommend for a pleasant stay.
