The rooms don't have the best view, even on floor 11, but you'll likely use the blinds anyway to give you privacy from the neighboring buildings.

Quiet at nightcomplaints rising: 3.0 in 100 a year ago, 5.6 now612Weak spot
However, issues like noisy other travelers and the smell of durian on the room floor are not problems with the hotel's quality but rather with the other guests' manners, so we had to put up with them.
Google, August 2026, rated 5/5 by this guest
I could hear the traffic from the street very clearly; I could barely sleep.
Google, August 2026, rated 3/5 by this guest
The only downside is a bit of noise from the windows (ours alone), but our travel companions didn't have this problem.

Problems in the bathroom4 of 2921 in 73 reviews
The room was generally clean and dust-free, with all surfaces spotless 👍🏻 Except for the toilet, which had a slight urine smell (I'm a housekeeper, so this is an occupational hazard 🤦🏻♀️, but I can't help it).

Also the shower room has some unpleasant smell.
