I was extremely disappointed with my stay at this property. The cleanliness was appalling—bed linens were visibly dirty and caused severe itching after sleeping on them. Despite reporting the issue, the response was slow and unsatisfactory, and even getting a full refund took much longer than expected. The overall condition of the rooms suggested years without proper cleaning. The location near the river is nice in theory, but the surrounding area is noisy and unclean. It's hard to believe such a place made it onto any booking platform, especially given the lack of basic hygiene standards. I’d strongly advise travelers to think twice before choosing this hotel—your experience could be just as frustrating as mine.

Yes, there are some late-night street activities nearby, but the area remains safe, especially with the convenience of a 7-Eleven open late. With so many international travelers around, the atmosphere is lively and welcoming. This place offers fantastic value and a memorable experience—I’ll definitely be back.
