I took the children to make gifts for the teachers. I chose small handbags. The finished product was very beautiful and the environment was also very good. I will take the children to participate in other workshops next time.

It's close to the station and the building is new so it's clean. All the staff I met were nice. There is no water, but it seems you can buy it cheaply at the front desk. There was a hair dryer, slippers, and a refrigerator.

It is very convenient to order egg waffles and drinks through Klook every time. The egg waffles are diverse in style, crispy and fragrant, and the drinks are so refreshing. It is worth recommending! I will buy again!

Our yacht trip was absolutely incredible, thanks to the super kind and awesome staff! They went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience—attentive, friendly, and always smiling. The photographer was also amazing, capturing stunning shots of our group and the beautiful scenery. The photos turned out so professional and will be cherished forever. The whole crew made us feel welcome and pampered from start to finish. If you're looking for a luxurious and memorable day out at sea, this is the trip to book! Highly recommend!
