An average experience
Overall it was an average experience. The hotel is stated as a 4 star hotel. It reminds more of a 3 star place and absolutely overpriced. The room was extremely small and not comfortable. The hotel really loud at all times.

The location of the hotel was rather perilous and inconvenient. It is right next to a next station and 15 min walk from the center of town. Otherwise, the room looks recently updated, the beds were firm n comfortable, good water pressure.
