Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller

Travel Purpose: business

Positive: Except for the lack of an air conditioner, I really liked the place — the room, kitchen, and balcony. The room was clean, and the kitchen facilities were good.

Negative: I stayed there in December. Some nights were fine for me because the weather was pleasant, but keep in mind it was still summer. In the real summer season, a table fan isn’t enough — it gets too hot to stay in the room during the afternoon or sleep comfortably at night. They really need to install AC in the rooms.
