great locationbus stopkind staff

The location was a dream come true. A short walk brought me to the city center. a bus stop right outside the hotel made getting around easy. i received good restaurant recommendations from the kind staff. They cared about my experience.

The rooms at the front could get a bit noisy at times. Light sleepers might want to request a room away from the street.

Charmed Stay in Great Location

friendly staffquiet roomearly closing

This hotel have really kind staff, and that's a plus. My room stayed quiet, good because I needed rest. The shower have nice pressure. That makes the morning better. I am charmed with the cleanliness. It is always nice to see an tidy space.

The bar closes early. I was a bit sad when I couldn't get a late drink. It would be great if they extend the bar hours. That simple change would boost my experience a bit more.

Rooms

The staff were polite.

The room was excessively small and uncomfortable. It felt very cramped. the air conditioning didn't work at all. I tried to adjust it, but the room remained stuffy and warm throughout the night.
