"We stayed in a family room with two queen beds. Spacious and comfortable. Excellent location right outside Jonker Night Market, but note that you can definitely hear the noise and concerts going on right outside if you are on that side of the building. It ended around 11 pm. The bathroom was spacious but could be renovated - due to the design of the tub, there was a fair bit of moldy caulking. Staff was friendly and helpful."
