"The room was well sized, clean with a balcony and view of the river. Price was very reasonable. Location was close to shopping mall and some restaurants. Amenities were minimal so we had to keep asking for supplies, (one tiny bottle of body wash, all in one shampoo and one soap) for a 3 night stay, One tea bag and one tiny sachet of dishwashing liquid. The cups could have been checked for cleanliness as there was coffee/tea stains which were easily washed away. Bedding and air-conditioning was good quality."
