We stayed at this hotel for three nights, both the apartment and the twin room. The rooms were nicely decorated, spacious and comfortable. We had very good time. Staffs were all friendly and helpful. Almost perfect. Unfortunately the oven didn’t work.

Great, maybe a little less accessible which wasn't a problem for me, it seemed like the hotel has air-conditioning for only half the rooms, which I thought was odd.
