I recently stayed at The Golden Hotel for two nights and found it to be a good experience overall. The cleanliness of the room was impressive, and I appreciated the spacious layout, which provided comfort for my family. The only downside was a slight hiccup with room service, which didn't clean the bathroom during our stay as requested. Despite that, the staff were friendly and attentive, willing to assist whenever I needed help. 🌟
