The staff are very helpful. The room was clean, although it was hard to find spots in the room to place our luggage. We had a problem with the air-conditioning three days before departure but we were given an upgrade to a junior suite on the 13th floor and it was great. The breakfasts are ample and delicious. The hotel is quite attractive. The WHAMPAO Market (fruit, veggies, food) is nearby as well as the Shaw Shopping Centre.
