My stay at Garden Top Hotel had its ups and downs. While I appreciated the friendly staff and the nice location close to Eastgate, the overall experience was overshadowed by the condition of the rooms, which were dirty and had maintenance issues. I was also disappointed with the dining options, as the breakfast was quite underwhelming. 😕🌆

I had a mixed experience at Garden Top Hotel during my one-night stay. The location felt a bit dodgy, and the cleanliness of the room left a lot to be desired. However, I appreciated the nice bathroom with a Jacuzzi, and the staff were very kind and welcoming, which somewhat balanced out the negatives.

I had a really disappointing experience at the Garden Top Hotel. The check-in process was frustrating, and I was left without water for my entire stay, which made it quite uncomfortable. While the room was in good condition and had a helpful fridge, the service was lacking and the location felt a bit dodgy.

My stay at Garden Top Hotel was filled with challenges. The room was clean, though it took an hour and a half to be ready. The location felt unsafe and there were persistent issues with water availability that hindered my comfort. However, the staff's friendliness and willingness to assist me made the experience a little better.
