Change Overnight
Good location, inside is quite stunning with good views, however corridor of hotel was dark and scary. The soundproofing is also very bad and the distant clock keep chiming every 15min which didnt help. Wish there is more amenities eg only 1 box of tissues for the entire 2br apartment and upstairs ...
