8/10 Very good

Did exactly what it promised
This hotel did exactly what it said on the tin. Well, maybe not straight-up luxury, but that's just your naming conventions in SE Asia.
I was flying at night, so I booked the suite with a balcony to act as my HQ for just one day. It worked perfectly for those ends: I arrived and was given the room as soon as the clean-up was finished, which was before the official checkin time. The room was nice and clean and had a great view the city. I had a lot fun coming and going and, while in the room, following the hectic goings-on on the streets below.
However, if you are planning to stay longer – which you probably are – you have to take into account the lack of a breakfast option and the street noise, which might actually make sleeping a little bit tough – seeing as this is a city that genuinely never sleeps, unlike many cities that are nicknamed so that actually doze off shortly after midnight.
