The hotel was affordable and offered good value for the price. Breakfast was well organized and delicious. The building itself was okay, and for a short stay of a few days, the room was a decent size and well maintained. However, the bedding and towels could definitely use an upgrade. The location was very central, with a 24-hour supermarket and several restaurants nearby, which was very convenient. Overall, it’s a good option if you’re looking for a centrally located hotel at a reasonable price.

The first room I went to have roaches and insects; they moved me then to a bigger room and the rooms were not clean. The room had a tub but the water stop was broken off and I couldn’t even enjoy the tub. The breakfast was very small in variety and not tasty. I will never return to this hotel

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Walking out of the elevator straight into the room was immediately unsettling. The condition of the room felt unsafe and poorly maintained. The bedroom window could not lock, and the bathroom had no window at all, which was uncomfortable and concerning. There appeared to be mold on several areas of the walls that looked like they had simply been painted over. The ceiling was visibly cracking, and the TV was extremely small (around 20 inches), adding to the overall feeling that the room had not been properly updated or cared for. The bathroom setup was also inadequate. There were only two drying towels provided and no floor towel, despite having a standing shower, which made the space impractical and slippery. Overall, this was honestly the worst and most unsafe place I’ve ever walked into. I would not recommend staying here.
