basic stay near the station
cramped roominsufficient ventilation
The room i got felt quite cramped. it was a budget room with a queensize bed. there wasn't much space to move around. Placing luggage became a bit tricky and the ventilation seemed insufficient as the air felt stale. i was hoping for a more comfortable experience.
