Good stay
Good for a short stay, self check in and the hotel next door kept our bags for us. The room got very hot at night in the summer, ok for a short stay but would be unpleasant for a longer stay. Standard breakfast. Would reccomend if you are travelling on a budget. Good location.

If you are accustomed to even the basic comforts of American hotels, you will be disappointed here. There is no air conditioning which I thought would be no big deal since outside temperatures were in the 60’s. Boy, was I wrong! It felt higher than 100 degrees at night, probably because the rooms are designed to retain the heat inside. When we tried opening windows, the loud noise of traffic and commotion outside prevented us from sleeping, all the while the whole place was basically an oven. This is a self service hotel, so expect to do all service yourself. The front desk has no humans (so if you’re confused due to your lack of knowing the local language there’s not much help) but they get some services from a hotel next door , and they were friendly. I asked for extra fans, but I never received in any of our rooms. I did not sleep well for 2 nights and also fell very sick, which made the rest of my trip not as enjoyable as it could have been. This hotel was a disappointment.

Everything was great except there was no Air Con. It was middle of September & rooms were sweltering and stuffy. Couldnt sleep because of heat & noise. Romms were supplied with a small, very noisy desk top fan.

The Self Check-in was very smooth and effective. The room was ok. However, I didn't expect business room without a/c: these days were extremely hot and it was not easy to get some sleep during a night even with fully open window. The table light is necessary to make work and reading possible. Extra power sockets at the table or extention power cable would be very helpful. Many thanks to restaurant team for extra service - I had to leave early and I was served at 6:30 - while breakfast service starts at 7:00.
