Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Reserve a room with a private bathroom (suite or premium suite) if shared facilities are not suitable.

  • 02

    Use the free luggage storage for same-day baggage drop before check-in or after checkout.

  • 03

    Plan to use ride-hailing services for evening transport; the immediate area around the hotel is less walkable after dark.

  • 04

    Request a room away from the street and on upper floors to minimize noise from the surrounding area and thin walls.
