1 night stay in golden tulip Headington Ruwi

Nice comfortable room. We stayed only for 1 night. We did a very late night check in. Staff was courteous and offered us pineapple juice at 2am also! Very helpful and took our bags to our room. Parking available in the basement. Room is neat and comfy with all amenities. Staff also helped us with directions to nearby supermarket.
