Room is spacious with big bathroom. Aircond functioned well. The room, the beds, and bathroom was clean. But the curtain was torn and quite dirty. There was no TV in the room, but we didn’t miss it since we stayed just for a night, and we entertained ourselves with YouTube videos and some video games. There was no wardrobe in the room too (also not missed)
