"Few things, no mirror, no remote but was replaced, fan very noisy, shower leaking and not to much space for clothes storage. On the plus staff were awesome and location is good. Value for the money but could have been better."
"The hotel staff was friendly. The hotel was average. It came with a breakfast voucher. The food was 2 eggs, toast with butter/jam, and coffee. As for the room, it came with no hotel slippers and no water to drink. The room had a wall AC and it didn't feel cool at all. I don’t plan on coming back here again!"
