Smelly but does the trick
Staff were friendly. Handy check in. Actual room was pretty smelly and not in great condition but it did the trick. Decent AC and okay bed. Very old bathroom. Poorly maintained. Mould. Room was v noisy. Probs wouldn't come back again

This is budget accommodation and fully lived up to expectations for the price. Bed was comfortable, water hot and even biscuits in the room. Very satisfied.
