8/10 Very good

A perfectly pleasant little hotel. It has a lively location, which may or may not be a bonus depending on your bed-time; and air-con would have been nice - but that's not a deal-breaker. I'd certainly recommend it.

East West Riverside Hotel
Website says airport transfer. I used the filter for air transport. There isn't any transport. Needs to be removed from website and filter. The room didn't have any air only a fan. There wasn't adequate lighting in the room. The location was nice. The location is more of a restaurant and bar.
