Opened in 2023, the hotel is very new, in the city center, within walking distance of museums and art galleries, the twin room is large and the bed is also large. The restaurant is on the 10th floor. There is a terrace on the 12th floor, with a bird's eye view of the entire city.

The one-bedroom suite I booked is larger than the ordinary room. The bathroom and living room are integrated, so the room looks very large. There is a large curved balcony. I live on the 8th floor, which is blocked by houses on all sides, so there is no view. You can only see the scenery from the 10th floor and above. The 360-degree panoramic view of the rooftop on the 12th floor is really good. The sanitation that everyone complains about is indeed average. The room is okay, but the balcony is really not cleaned at all. The floor is dirty, and there are all kinds of mesh on the balcony roof and outdoor chairs. The balcony is also a large layer of dust. It is very close to the station and Prince Street. There is a large shopping mall downstairs, and you can go directly to the mall from the 4th floor. Overall, it is still recommended.
