Nice place. Wasn’t for us and checked out a day early to a hotel. Sleeping was hard as noise was heard throughout at night. Just humans being humans ;) Staff “YaYa” and her sister were great! Shower/bathroom area was clean, warm and nice. Located in the heart of shopping area. Maybe it’s for you, don’t knock it until you try it.

Decent option, odd experience
Checked in after hours and the gentleman was rude at first, but ultimately helpful when I called in advance. Very open set up, no privacy, no towel or wifi was offered but I opened some cabinets and found one. Overall decent option, just a little weird experience.
