The location was quite challenging to find—despite asking multiple local drivers and locals, we couldn’t get clear directions. It ended up being a bit of a hassle navigating to the hotel. While the building has a unique look, the overall experience didn’t live up to expectations. The room was decent but lacked standout features, and the service felt a bit slow. Not the easiest place to reach, especially if you’re not familiar with the area. I’d recommend choosing a more centrally located option next time.
