My fiance and I stayed there for a couple of nights. The rooms are newly renovated. The place is clean, comfort room's spacious, and the pantry area will make you feel at home. It has perfect location as it's in the corner of Gaya St where you'll see great finds and cheap local products. Enjoy your stay in Sensi! More
