I didn't have a chance to try breakfast so can't comment. The room was clean and bed very comfortable, nice modern/updated bathroom with rain shower, however you wouldn't want to be taller than 6ft otherwise you wouldn't fit under the shower. There was a very loud hum from the airconditioner on & off throughout the night and due to the proximity of the building next door, my allocated room had very little natural light.

This hotel offers reasonable value for money. The staff were courteous and helpful and the room was pleasant. The design of the bathroom allowed water to splash on the floor and having to step up into a rather narrow shower may cause difficulty for some.

Guest Service agent Joan was brilliant when I checked in. This set the tone for the stay. Our room was a lovely corner room with views and a great rainwater showerhead. The hotel was in a great location where we were able to potter over to Chinatown for dinner.

Staff in various areas throughout the hotel seemed disinterested in customer service and we stayed for 6 days so we are not being picky. Not a hotel we will be returning to as there are better options available.
