Acceptable Stay with a Few Issues
convenient locationcramped roomsmall 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.

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.
