My stay at Hotel Argus By Happyculture was a mixed bag. While the staff were friendly and the breakfast buffet was a good start to the day, the overall experience was marred by the hotel’s need for renovation and some noise issues from the hallway. The clean rooms were a plus, but I found them rather basic and lacking in décor.
