Acceptable Stay with a Few Issues
cramped room small bathroom
The location suited my plans quite well.
The room felt rather cramped and the bathroom was oddly small.. I nearly knocked over the sink trying to turn around. This made getting ready a bit more awkward than it needed to be.

The location was convenient to nearby attractions. I liked that it was close to the botanic gardens. The room was clean. Staff at reception WERE helpful.
My room was quite small. The bathroom lacked sufficient space, it felt cramped. There was noticeable noise from other rooms. The furniture looked dated.

good location friendly staff small room cigarette smell
I found the location quite good, near shops and restaurants. The staff seemed friendly and helpful. Breakfast was just what I needed. I had a very pleasant stay.
The rooms were quite small. The bed was not comfortable. I noticed some hair on the bed and in the bathroom, and there was a smell of cigarettes in the bathroom, unfortunately.
