Staying at this hotel in Pekanbaru was truly a great choice! The teams here are friendly and welcoming, making the stay pleasant. The facilities like the jacuzzi, gym, rooftop bar, and swimming pool were fantastic, and everything felt very clean and well-maintained. The breakfast selection could use some improvement, though. Plus, there's a handy convenience store, KFC, and durian shops nearby, which adds to the experience.
