the gym featured over twenty cardio machines and strength training equipment. a semi-olympic indoor pool included a lap lane, free section, hot tub, and kids' pool. the front desk staff were very polite, they addressed issues with rooms efficiently. the breakfast buffet offered unique items like honeycomb.

adequate room room size missing fruit basket limited english
the room size was adequate.
The promised fruit basket never arrived (it was supposed to make up for the daily water shortage). the staff's limited english was also a challenge. Only a couple of receptionists spoke it fluently.

a gem of hospitality
oval building equipped gym indoor pool
The oval-shaped building looks magnificent, especially the reception lobby. i enjoyed the fully equipped gym in basement 2. It was uncrowded s. the indoor pool was beautiful and large, with a lap lane, free section, hot tub, and kids' pool. running on a treadmill was special with the captivating artificial floral display nearby.
the game room with video games and vr was hard to find. i think more visible signs and directions would be helpful.
