Good location for an overnight stay in Banda Aceh

The hotel is located very centrally in Medan and certainly one of the up-scale hotels in the city. We stayed overnight before heading on to Pulau Weh. Due to a bus delay, we checked in very late at night, which was not a problem due to 24/7 reception. Communication ahead of time was quick. Please be advised that a sign at the entrance will inform you that this is a Sharia Hotel - for Western Tourists like us there seemed to be no specific expectation related to this, but we would recommend dressing respectfully when going to breakfast etc. (like most anywhere in Aceh actually).

Good enough if .... All is good especially the location except for 4 things. It is convenient for guests who want to be close to the main attractions. Unfortunately we had to change rooms due to bad smell in the room that may have been caused by previous guests smoking in the bathroom or dampness or both. Secondly I specifically asked before booking about the internet connection, whether it is strong enough for an online meeting and the answer was yes, however I found out that it wasn't strong enough. Thirdly, the phones in the rooms were not working and no one explained about it. We were trying to get hold of room service and reception for ages before going down to ask what's wrong with it. Finally, I think guests should have priority parking over visitors of their restaurants. There's a night that we had to park at a paid parking opposite the hotel because it was full.

Nice service, smooth check in without any extra payment (deposit), as I already make the payment upfront. Getting the room, at level 3, toward the end of the corner. Spacious room, but the room floor a bit unsatisfactory, feel a bit sticky. Complete toiletries with a good laundry service, fast respond too. For the breakfast, the food not so variety. Maybe can be consider on more food options.
