    excellent air-conditioning
    chaotic check-in

    The air-conditioning was exceptional, providing a refreshing escape from the heat outside.

    Unfortunately, the check-in process was quite chaotic, which added unnecessary stress after a long journey.

    spacious room
    chaotic check-in

    Unexpected dining adventures await

    The spacious Deluxe Queen Room offered a comfortable retreat, perfect for unwinding after a long flight. The efficient airport shuttle and friendly staff made our arrival seamless.

    The chaotic check-in process added unnecessary stress, and breakfast variety was quite limited, lacking freshness. Some menu items at dinner didn’t quite match our expectations.

    convenient store
    room comfort
    airport pickup

    The convenient store within the storefront complex is a small lifesaver for weary travelers needing a quick grab before settling in. Despite the overall aging look of the amenities, the room provided enough comfort to catch some much-needed rest.

    Arranging for airport pickup was a hassle, with multiple calls and confirmations needed, yet the vehicle didn't arrive as promised, leaving travelers stranded for over an hour. Hot water required an outdoor switch that was inconvenient to find after a long day, resulting in cold showers, and a chaotic check-in process added stress after an exhausting journey.

    comfy room
    delicious food
    smooth pick-up
    chaotic check-in

    Had a solid stay at Blue Sapphire before our flight. The room was comfy with great AC, and the restaurant served delicious Indian food. The airport pick-up was smooth, though check-in was a bit chaotic. Decent value for a layover!

    spacious room
    prompt pickup
    limited breakfast
    inconsistent menu
    ongoing roadworks

    The airport pickup was prompt and efficient, setting a positive tone for my stay. The room was spacious and well-equipped, featuring a comfortable bed and ample relaxation space. Dinner at the restaurant was enjoyable, with a mix of well-flavored dishes, although some didn't quite match the menu descriptions. Unfortunately, the ongoing roadworks made accessing the location a bit cumbersome, and the breakfast variety was somewhat limited, lacking the freshness I had hoped for.
