Room with sunset view , great exploration surrounding and restaurant just downstairs. Just that need to walk three floors up and not suitable to bring young children cause quite dangerous to walk up three floors.
There was no one at the reception when we arrived. Need to call the person in charge for check in then they will come to attend you. The room and environment are good.

Sound proofing 1*
If u choose a balcony, like us.... Be prepared for no sleep.
Sound from boats' engines will wake you as early as 4am and this goes on non stop.
But the plus points more than outway the sound problem.

The hotel is most artsy meaning it's decorated like a boutique hotel, very creative & pleasant. It's right by the riverside & the view is a sight to behold. Departure jetty points are closeby. Restaurants are plenty with one Chinese food restaurant right in the hotel itself. There are many things to like about this hotel. Perhaps a night staff on duty might help. Parking spaces for cars are limited.
Many people think the fish smell is off-putting but the fish is fresh fish smell to me, not like those supermarket fishy smell and not stale fish smell so I’m alright with it. Water provided is their own boiled water, so if you prefer, buy your own bottled water. Breakfast is simple sandwich but it’s good enough for us.
