At Wanderlust hotel, you can choose 3 different room categories which is, Pantone, Mono and Whimsical that you would like to stay with them. The most popular category will be Whimsical as there are 5 themes to choose from. These 5 themes are, Bling’ , ‘ASCII’, ‘Space’, ‘Tree’ and ‘Typewriter’.

Especially the Space theme, which is very popular to the youngster who would like to stay in their space room. Although I could not able to stay at their Space theme, but I managed to stay at Typewriter theme room. It is duplex room that makes the room look quite big.
