Reviews and Ratings
I found the hotel to be quite average overall. The room was spacious and clean, with helpful staff always smiling. However, I struggled a bit with the comfort of the bed and experienced some noise at night that made it hard to fall asleep. The slow and interrupted Wi-Fi was also a downside. On the plus side, the hotel offers alcoholic beverages, which is a nice touch for a place within this budget.
