I stayed here for a few nights and was unimpressed with the cleanliness of the hotel. There was some mould on the roof of my bedroom and bathroom, and the carpet was dirty. There were strange stains on the headboard of the bed. The breakfast service was quite untidy, with plates not well cleaned and surfaces unclean

When we arrived we got a room which was very cold because of the AC and we couldn't change the temperature. We asked for a new room and had to wait till 1am. We arrived the hotel at 9:45pm. When we checked in, we also asked where we can find any dinner, and she said the restaurant was closed. When we came up to the room we realized there was room service and we actually could order food. But then we have already order food via grab.

Place was very accomodating... nice comfortable beds, great location. A frustrating stain on one of the seats, and a some spots appearing around the AC. Wasn't perfect but it had really good vibes, great people. I kept extending my stay in KK and consistently chose Ming.
