The reception staff were helpful. They accommodated my late check-in at 3 AM. The room was quiet and clean. I found complimentary tea, coffee, and water. The bathroom was modern. It featured good water pressure.
The bell boy service was slow. I waited quite a while for assistance with my luggage in the heat.
