The service is really great, I really want to give it six stars! I was dining alone this time, but the manager was very nice. In addition to caring about whether he was satisfied with the dishes, he also kept asking if he wanted to add more. He was not afraid of the guests eating too much. Two hours later, the drinks were not finished yet, so they didn’t chase me away and let me sit and eat and drink slowly. I stayed there for about three hours afterwards! The environment is great, the dishes are rich, and the service is top-notch! Highly recommended to experience it once

If you are a big fan of the Conjuring Universe, then this is for you. Though it's not really a scare tour (for me though), I'm just fond of horror houses. We went just through different locations throughout the films and you can take photos of the iconic scenes like where Annabelle was sealed in a glass cage. You just have to walk slowly though, the first few parts we went too fast because of the screaming lady that startled the group (haha). Just take time and enjoy.

Very good, very fun. When I went, there weren't many people. When there were very few people, it made the atmosphere a bit more desolate. But it's good. For those who are still hesitating, I recommend going at least once.

The first time I experienced the phoenix muscle massage, I was very shy and was out of control. Then I just wanted to go to the toilet. The Canadian breakfast on the second floor is highly recommended to experience the massage after a leisurely breakfast and rest. The masseur can speak a little Chinese and basic English and care about your feelings. Because I haven’t tried Yoni, for me personally, I will encourage tipping for all services as long as they are serious and not disrespectful👍

The CP value is very high, the food is delicious and the service is good. The only drawback is that it does not come with drinks and needs to be purchased separately.
