Satisfactory stay in a central location

central location friendly staff tasty food basic room small bathroom lack of air conditioning

The location was definitely a highlight. It made exploring the area very easy. I found the staff to be friendly (they were always ready to assist). The restaurant offered tasty food.

The room felt quite basic for the price I paid. The bathroom was small with limited privacy (the sliding door had a gap). I also noticed there was no air conditioning, only a fan.

some issues

loud banging stale breakfast

i was disappointed by a couple of things , the noise during the night was disruptive , with loud banging sounds that woke me up. the curtains were also too thin , so the sunlight woke me up early. i found the breakfast a little stale , which was not ideal.

excellent location friendly staff nice variety small bathroom no air conditioning street noise

The location was excellent. It was very close to everything I wanted to see. The staff was friendly and helpful (always ready with a smile). Breakfast offered a nice variety to start the day.

The bathroom felt quite small. I missed having air conditioning in the room. Street noise at night made it difficult to sleep at times (even with the windows closed).
