I felt deceived when I arrived. The lobby was perfect - new, modern, clean - and just as advertised. But the room...that's a different story. It clearly is not new, nor clean, and has been well used by thousands before.
A few details: filthy carpets; wall paper peeling off; bathroom mold (the kind that can actually be scrubbed off); dirty corners (behind the curtains, window sill); and it had no view at all - the window was laminated over.
The bed was clean, comfortable, and I slept well though.
Forget the western breakfast, it's 95% Asian food. They had Frosted Flakes cereal, some breads, and coffee/tea. That was it. Not even eggs (western or asian eggs! ;)
