My experience at Happy City Hotel was far from pleasant. While the location was quite good, I encountered numerous issues, including the cleanliness of the rooms and the quality of the food. The staff seemed friendly at first, but service quickly turned deceptive. It's a hotel I can't recommend, especially if you're looking for comfort and a reliable dining experience.

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel, especially since it was perfect for our small family. The room suited us well with a separate living area for the kids, which was a nice touch. The breakfast was decent, and the rooftop restaurant served some tasty meals, but the lack of Wi-Fi was a bit of a hassle. Overall, for the price, it was a good deal considering the location and the services provided.

My stay at Happy City had its ups and downs. While the location is decent, and the rooftop area offers a nice view to unwind, the rooms and dining left much to be desired. The staff seemed indifferent at times, and my experiences with both the amenities and food were not positive. It was a memorable experience, but not for the right reasons, and I wouldn't recommend it.
