My stay at the hotel was generally comfortable with a few highlights and drawbacks. The rooms were clean and offered good amenities, although the service aspect was a bit inconsistent. I enjoyed the minimalistic pool on the seventh floor with a nice view of Pekanbaru city, but the noise from the karaoke in the basement made it hard to sleep. The location is decent for a taxi ride to downtown, but it's not really walkable.

The hotel stay was quite comfortable overall. The rooms are clean and provide a good level of sanitation. The staff is helpful, especially during breakfast. I enjoyed the minimalist swimming pool on the seventh floor with its great view of the city, but there were some noise issues at night from karaoke that could be bothersome. Additionally, the location is somewhat inconvenient for walking to downtown, making taxis a necessity, although they are inexpensive. Overall, while the hotel has its merits, it's slightly overpriced considering the quality of some amenities.

I spent 17 days in this hotel for a business trip. The room had some decent aspects, including cleanliness, but overall, I felt the hotel was a bit overpriced. The room service was just okay, and the food was nothing special. On a positive note, the swimming pool does offer a nice view, but there were some inconveniences during my stay, mainly due to noise from karaoke in the basement.

I had a comfortable stay at this hotel, with clean rooms and great amenities like a pool with an amazing view of Pekanbaru city. However, the karaoke noise at night was quite bothersome, and the location meant I had to rely on taxis to get to downtown. While the staff was helpful, I found some aspects of the food service lacking, especially with fruit freshness. Overall, it was a decent experience but not without its downsides.
