Check the sleep and noise findings before booking

A well-located, serviceable budget option with a praised pool, friendly staff and good potential value, but substantial uncertainty around room allocation, cleanliness, maintenance and sleep quality. The booked room category and tolerance for nightlife noise are decisive.

Worth checking: 50 of the 465 reviews in our sample contain a complaint about noise. See the evidence

How we got to 3.0

Sleep quality is below average because multiple supplied reviews document late-night nightclub or pub noise, weak room soundproofing, hallway and neighboring-room noise, and noisy air-conditioning. Some guests report quiet rooms or comfortable sleep, so the score reflects mixed experiences rather than universal failure. Corpus statistics identify 59 detected noise mentions, 50 classified as complaints, with 34 complaints in the last two years; these are lower-bound detections and not prevalence estimates.

Supports the score
  • Several supplied reviews describe comfortable beds and peaceful sleep.
  • Air conditioning is available, though its noise is reported by some guests.
Pulls the score down
  • Nightlife noise and weak soundproofing are documented, including late-night music.
  • Air-conditioning, hallway, neighboring-room, and plumbing noise are also reported.
  • Blackout performance is not established by the supplied evidence.

Evidence confidence: higher. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.

Rooms

5.5/10

138 reviews about this · 84 photos available · analyzed Oct 2026.

The rooms are acceptable rather than consistently impressive. Guests praise spacious, clean rooms and occasional good views, but bathrooms and beds draw complaints, and some rooms feel cramped or lack windows. Check the room type carefully if space and comfort matter.

How we got to 5.5

Overall condition is mixed: cleanliness has substantial positive evidence but also explicit, sometimes severe failures; maintenance has documented leaks, broken fixtures and mould alongside reports of modern fittings and refurbishment. No deterioration trend is assigned because the selected reviews are not statistically representative and the evidence conflicts.

Supports the score
  • Many supplied reviews describe rooms as clean, including recent reviews.
  • Photographs show generally orderly rooms, made beds and intact-looking furnishings.
  • Daily housekeeping is listed in the property data.
Pulls the score down
  • Supplied reviews document dirty floors, stained or dusty bedding, hair, mould, dampness, odors and neglected cleaning.
  • Condition evidence is mixed across room types; some reviews report old, broken or poorly maintained elements.
  • Photographs are marketing images and cannot establish real-world cleanliness or wear.

Evidence confidence: moderate. This is a model assessment, not a statistical probability. Limited or inconsistent sources reduce confidence.

Staff and service

Staff are a clear strength, especially for friendliness and routine check-in. Guests commonly describe helpful service, though some find the desk abrupt and problem-solving less reliable when something goes wrong. Expect a pleasant welcome, but do not assume every issue will be handled smoothly.

Guest evidence & score details

The pool gets positive guest feedback, but there is too little detail to judge its size, shade, crowding or upkeep. It is a promising bonus rather than a fully assessed resort-style feature. Treat it as suitable for a swim, not a guaranteed pool-day destination.

How we got to 7.0

Score 7/10. The pool exists according to a direct guest statement praising a “Great pool,” and corpus statistics record three detected pool mentions, all classified as praise. The score is limited because the supplied evidence does not establish pool size, equipment, usability, or maintenance beyond that praise.

Supports the score
  • The pool is explicitly praised by a supplied guest as “Great pool.”
  • Stored-corpus statistics detect three pool mentions, all classified as praise; these are lower-bound counts, not prevalence estimates.
Pulls the score down
  • No supplied photograph actually shows the pool, so size, layout, shade, loungers, privacy and condition cannot be assessed visually.
  • No supplied review documents pool dimensions, lap suitability, crowding, or maintenance details.

The location is one of the hotel’s strongest features, with malls, restaurants, cafés, shops, pharmacies and public transport within easy reach. The trade-off is a lively, noisy neighbourhood and limited or unavailable parking. It suits visitors who value central convenience over quiet nights.

How this page was made

We hold 465 reviews for this property and analyzed 465 reviews across 8 languages. Text matching and AI interpretation can miss nuance, sarcasm or translations. Repeated experiences, larger samples and independent sources are more useful than a single vivid quote.

Quotes, however, are only ever drawn from the 255 English reviews. Machine-translating a guest’s sentence would change their original wording.

We count mentions using text patterns. Complaints can come from a reviewer’s “disliked” field or negative wording in their review. These counts describe the reviews we hold, not the proportion of all guests who experienced an issue. “Recent” means the last 730 days.

Scores, section explanations and photo descriptions come from a model reading the source material using AI, last run 11 October 2026. Published photos may be old, staged or incomplete; AI cannot measure a room or verify a facility is currently open. Nearby places are mapped within 1500 m; walking times are estimates, not checked routes. Prices are observations for sample dates and will move.

We link to a review or its source page when an address is available. Source, rating, and month accompany quotes to help you locate them. Some links open a collection of reviews rather than the individual quote.
