The hotel was in a convenient location with accessibility to mall and dining places. The hotel lobby was clean. The room is clean, but not very spacious. The toilet is also clean and nice.

Property was new, nice, and big (it was basically a full fledged one room apartment we had). Two TVs, kitchenette and washing machine. Location was well placed within 10min walk to gaya street. Only drawback was that Citadines co-shares the plot and common facilities w an apartment building called Northshore (different wing) which brings along w that, tons of short-stay crowd (amongst them children) and noise in the common areas, esp the pool.

Sad to note there wasn’t a swimming pool per se but only an adult wading pool that allows you to enjoy the cooling off & sunset. No attendant in sight in the gym ( suppose to collect pool towel) & no pool towels available except the small ones. Went down @ 4.00pm to 6th level & left about 5.00pm or so when I sighted hotel staff with the load of clean fresh pool towels!
Only a coffeeshop available for dining with limited menu choices. Not convenient for those on short stays despite the fact that my room has the kitchen facilities & cutlery.

Fantastisk
Super super flot lejlighed med fantastisk udsigt ud over havet .
Lejligheden har en god størrelse, vi var tre , så en sov på opredning i stuen.
Lejligheden ligger centralt ca 1 km til det største mall og lidt under 1 km til havnen, hvor der arrangeres et væld af ture ud på forskellige øer

호텔은 괜찮지만 주변환경이 아쉬움
1.룸컨은 나름 괜찮습니다. 레지던스의 딱 그정도 느낌입니다. 호텔에 비하면 조금 아쉬운..
신상호텔 답게 집기들은 다 새거인것이 티남
2. 조식은 많이 아쉽습니다. 선택을 안하는게 더 나을듯 해요.
3. 수영장 메인풀장이 2개인데 인피니티풀장쪽만 이용 가능합니다. 중앙쪽 풀장은 맞은편 호텔쪽분들이 이용하는 풀장임. 인피니티풀쪽이 한가하며 수질도 좋고 전망도 좋아서 큰 풀만은 없었습니다.
4. 주변환경이 좀 아쉽습니다. 조금 늦은시간 외부로 나가면 큰쥐와 바퀴벌레들과 마주치게 됩니다. 워터프론트 라인이라 바로앞 시장이 형성되어 있어서 어쩔 수 없는 환경인것은 이해하지만 와이프가 보고 큰 충격을 받았네요. 이런 환경은 잘고려해야 할 것 같네요.
