The hotel is conveniently located near Kenting Night Market, making it easy to explore the local area. The rooms are spacious, although a bit dated, and the service is warm and friendly. The on-site dining offers a good variety of food choices, but some areas could use improvement. The facilities are adequate, but there is room for enhancement in certain aspects.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The staff were extremely friendly, but the room had a moldy smell, and they only provided hard blankets when we asked for a heater. The location was good but required a lot of walking from the entrance to the room. The dining options were fantastic, with an extensive selection of Western and Asian foods, but the lunch buffet was not up to par.

The hotel offers spacious rooms, albeit with a slightly outdated style reminiscent of the '80s and a hint of dirt smell. The service staff are friendly and accommodating, although not very flexible with vegetarian preferences. The location is convenient, being just a few minutes' walk to the night market. The dining options provide a good mix of Western and Asian cuisine, although not the most flavorful. Overall, the facilities are clean and offer a decent experience for the price paid.

I found this hotel to be quite nice overall. The rooms were spacious, but I had to do a bit of walking from the entrance to get to mine. The two comfortable double beds were a plus, though they seemed a bit worn. The service was fair, not very accommodating for vegetarians, but the staff were always helpful and friendly. The location was good, just a couple of minutes' walk from the night market despite some recent closures due to a typhoon warning. The dining options were varied, with a mix of Western and Asian food; however, the taste could have been better. The facilities were average but did offer some amenities. Overall, a decent stay with a few drawbacks.

My stay at the hotel was an overall pleasant experience. The rooms were quite big and located in a silent environment, although they had a bit of an old smell. Despite feeling a bit old and old-fashioned, the high ceiling made them feel nice and spacious. The service provided by the staff was very warm and friendly, but it was a bit slow at times. Unfortunately, they were not very flexible in accommodating vegetarian guests. The location had its ups and downs, with a great setting near the beach and amenities like a kids play area and gym, but there was quite a bit of walking involved, and the buffet lunch was subpar. The dining experience offered an endless selection of Western and Asian treats, although the breakfast options were not as impressive as expected. The facilities were decent, but there were some areas needing improvement. The value for money was reasonable considering the amenities provided.
