i found the location quite convenient, it was near transportation hubs. the staff offered friendly service upon my arrival. the room had a clean environment, i must say.
the street noise did intrude into my room, it bothered me sometimes. i think they should fix this.

the location was acceptable.
The room was unbearably hot. there was no air conditioning and only a small fan. the hallways were also very narrow and the carpets were stained. It was off-putting.
