I found the staff very courteous. My room was spacious with great views. A complimentary chocolate cake and bed decoration looked, a thoughtful touch for my birthday. The location IS convenient, just a short tuk-tuk ride to the Fort.
The approach road looked a little grungy. First impressions MATTERED! though the check-in was okay.

the location was convenient for exploring, especially the proximity to the fort.
i encountered several problems with the service . the front desk didn't seem very attentive, and it felt as if there was a lack of genuine hospitality. basic amenities were missing from the room, like a full-size mirror and a dental kit, which i would expect in a hotel advertised as five-star.
