Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We were only given one key for three adults. There was rarely anyone at the front desk, so we couldn't check out properly or ask questions when needed. The website also does not mention that there are no elevators, which would have been helpful to know before booking. On the positive side, the room was clean, and the location was convenient, with a bus stop directly in front of the hotel.
