Location of this hotel is very good but downside is the direction for the carpark is a mess! They don’t have drop-off space for driver, the only indication for parking is inside the lift lobby at 1/F while reception is at the 4/F! Parking fee is fair though, room is clean but the bathroom is a little bit old and small! For price wise it’s not bad!
