The hotel has a great location along the riverside, which is super convenient, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. My room was quite spacious, but a bit smaller than I expected from the photos. The staff was friendly and helpful, though there were some issues with documentation requests. Overall, it’s a decent value for money, but there’s room for improvement in some areas.

I really loved the hotel's location; it was right near the Night Market and a bunch of other cool places to eat. The rooms were small but packed with amenities, which made my stay quite comfortable. The service was hit or miss—I found the staff generally nice, but at times it felt a bit untrained. Overall, the hotel was a good value for money, though the dining options left something to be desired.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location is fantastic and right in the heart of Riverside, the rooms left a lot to be desired—especially in terms of cleanliness. The service was hit and miss, with some issues regarding room cleaning and unwanted disturbances. Overall, it has potential but definitely needs improvements in certain areas to truly be a great option.

Rooms

The rooms were a bit small and not the cleanest, as I found cockroaches in my room, which was really unsettling. I also paid $42 per night, which seemed pricey for what I got. No river view either, just a window that let in some light.

Service was disappointing. I had an uncomfortable experience with staff knocking on my door to discuss check-out just when I was settling in. Additionally, I faced interruptions from individuals trying to sell drugs near the hotel, which really detracted from my comfort.

The location is one of the best aspects of this hotel. It's right in the center of Riverside, within walking distance to markets and a short tuk tuk ride from the airport. The view along the riverside is beautiful, especially at night.

I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel, especially the spacious room with a massive bath that was a real treat. The location was fantastic, with restaurants and bars just a short walk away. On the downside, there was a noticeable cigarette smell in the room which detracted from the experience.

My stay at the hotel was quite mixed. The location is excellent, right by the river and close to the center, which I loved. However, the rooms were a letdown; they had a persistent bad smell, and the construction noise made it hard to sleep. The service wasn't very helpful overall. While the breakfast options were not great, the dining area had potential. Overall, I'm not sure I would recommend it due to the issues I faced.

The room was quite spacious and had modern amenities, although some final touches were missing which made it feel a bit incomplete.
