I recently spent 4 nights at Causeway 353 Hotel, and overall, it was a lovely experience. The hotel staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with my questions. My premier king room was spacious and clean, although it could have been a bit cooler and quieter. The location was perfect for city exploration, with great restaurants nearby, but the breakfast options could use some improvement.

I had high hopes for my stay at Causeway 353 after loving it in the past, but this time I left quite disappointed. The air conditioning struggled to keep the room cool, causing sleepless nights.

However, the breakfast options were lacking, especially for the price.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at the hotel. While the location was fantastic, allowing me to explore the city easily on foot, the service left much to be desired especially during check-in. The room was clean and fairly quiet, but I encountered issues with the deposit and check-in process that marred the experience overall.

Rooms

The room was clean and spacious enough for two people. I appreciated that it was fairly quiet, despite being in the heart of the city, but there were minor issues like the beds not being remade properly.

The staff were friendly enough, but check-in was a nightmare. I felt like I was treated suspiciously, especially with the hidden $100 bond that was not disclosed upfront, which I find quite frustrating.
