    great location
    comfy rooms
    closed front desk
    no response

    couldnt check in but i bet the place is nice since it looks cozy and has a good vibe. i like the idea of comfy rooms and friendly staff from other reviews. the location seems perfect, close to fun places like museums and parks, which sounds great for a chill stay. parking seems easy too, which is a plus for me. really hope next time i visit it goes smoothly.

    was super frustrated to find the hotel closed when i arrived at 10:30pm after requesting a check-in at that time.

    billing issue
    poor communication

    I am furious that I was charged twice for my stay! They refused to acknowledge their mistake and left me having to sort this mess out. How can they treat customers like this? It's absurd! I expected better service, especially after a prior positive visit, but this experience has soured my view completely.

    billing issue
    confusing payment process

    I had a faultless experience during my stay at The Sun Inn. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all necessary amenities. The staff provided a warm welcome and were attentive to my needs, including accommodating a takeaway breakfast request. The outdoor seating area was well-maintained, making it a pleasant spot to unwind.

    I experienced a double charge issue during check-in.

    rude staff

    Wish it was better

    Room was spacious and clean, so that was a plus. But the staff? Ugh, they were pretty unhelpful and kinda rude. Breakfast was a letdown too, we waited ages for service, then got ignored. The dining area was messy, couldn't even eat comfortably with tables full of dirty dishes. Definitely needs work on the service front.

    cleanliness issues

    Children's playground is great for families. Service can be slow and somewhat disorganized during busy times. Nice outdoor seating area adds to the experience. Live music on weekends was a fun touch. Room had good amenities, but cleanliness could be better.
