The room was spacious , clean, and well kept. I found the air conditioning very efficient , which was important after spending time outside. The staff members were cute and helpful with directions. The hotel's proximity to shops made it easy to purchase necessities.

I keep returning because the staff is genuinely caring. the rooms are light with very comfortable beds. its location is excellent. A short walk leads to bazaars and train stations. coming back seemed like returning home to a warm and cute environment (i really appreciate the quiet).

the standard room felt quite small for our needs. i would not recommend this room for families as it lacks space. the experience felt rushed and uncomfortable.

some issues

missing shower gelpoor cleaning

The room was not cleaned properly, i had to ask twice for toilet paper! the shower gel was also missing. i ended up buying my own toiletries, it was not what i expected. i think that at least some soap or shower gel should be considered a basic thing. The cleaning wasn't sufficient either.
