Let's start with the positives: the location is incredibly convenient, within walking distance to various downtown attractions. The price was also reasonable, even during Chinese New Year, and the service was good. We stayed here for one night after an early morning flight, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. The environment is comparable to a budget chain hotel in China, and it can be a bit noisy facing the street. It's also an older version, not the newer 3.0. So, it's a decent option if you're looking for value for money for a temporary one or two-night stay.

The location is perfect. It's right next to a big shopping mall, and the staff are very helpful. It's also close to the beach, and there's a night market in the evenings. I stay here often and will definitely be back. Getting a taxi is convenient too.

The room is on the smaller side, but very clean and tidy. The decor is quite traditional. Rooms with a sea view are a bit noisier, while those facing inwards with no view are quieter. It's a trade-off, so choose based on your preference.
