"Everything was great! Nice staffs and great service. However, the breakfast was not as good as we expected in an IHG level of stay!"

"The staff is amazing; they are warm, kind, and extremely helpful. I'm definitely coming back. This hotel is in the best spot for food and temples. The local shops are amazing, and the restaurants around town are to die for. And the weekend markets are awesome. I will truly miss them. Hands down the best place to stay."
