This place is a good stay for late night finds after travelling from the air port. All though the room isn’t a 5 star hotel, does the job for needing a place to sleep. You have to carry bags up the stairs and the bathroom layout is strange. Bed wasn’t the best but did the job. The staff a friendly which was the positive about this stay.
