Overall it was a pleasant experience, it would have been better had there not been roaches, and if the shower stayed close. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly.

We were travelling with family and small kids. We had booked two rooms. They gave us one room in the first floor and another in the second floor. There were cockroaches everywhere in the first floor room. There were cigaretter burnt holes on the bedsheet too. The room in the second floor had strong foul smell.

Do not stay here.
The room looked nothing like the pictures, the couch was broken, the room didn’t smell good, and the shower had black stains on the floor and zero hot water. Check out took too long because the guy was way in the back with his TV loud. His very young son (like 4) had to bang on the bell multiple times and yell at him to come to the front. The only good thing about this place was the bed - it al least was comfortable and clean. I do NOT recommend staying here.
