“This hotel offers a budget-conscious stay, though some rooms, especially those in the basement, may suffer from noise issues. While staff reportedly strive to be helpful, be aware that some past visitors have reported issues with room conditions and security. It's a place to consider if location is paramount and expectations are tempered.”
