central stay

great location city views
The location was excellent. it offered easy access to many attractions. the rooftop bar provided fine city views. the staff was responsive. They addressed my needs immediately. i appreciated the attentiveness shown throughout my stay.
The room lacked a full length mirror. I found this inconvenient when getting ready. it would be helpful to have one available in the room, though it had air conditioning.

strange layout lack privacy
the hotel location allowed easy access to nearby restaurants and shops.
the room layout was quite strange. there was no separation between the bathroom and the room. the toilet door was frosted glass and did not fully shut, so it was awkward and lacked privacy. i was quite disappointed.
