i stayed in early september and found the location very convenient. it is near the bus station making day trips easy. the breakfast had a wide variety of options. i found the staff helpful .
the air conditioning did not work well, so the room was like a sauna. it was difficult to sleep comfortably due to this issue.

the hotel is next to the bus terminal offering easy access to various destinations. the main part of the town is beyond the bus station, approximately a short walk away. this proximity is beneficial for exploring the area.
