The room I was staying in had a door connecting to my neighbours' room. The sound isolation was already not great, but with that door it was unacceptable - I could hear every word my neighbours were saying (and vice versa). One of them was incredibly loud early in the morning when I was feeling unwell and needed to get proper sleep, and I could not get transferred to another room because they were all full. I also did not expect this place to not have breakfast included. There is only one restaurant in the building; otherwise, you gotta walk for quite a bit to reach any food places (I did not have a car). The staff were lovely and did everything in their power to help me, no issues there.

Good value for money

Gentleman at the reception desk was very pleasant and friendly. The hotel is located at an odd intersection (due to recent construction) with its immediate entry a bit hidden when turning onto the road towards it. It’s an older hotel but very clean. Has an attached restaurant, but I didn’t eat there to know the food quality. Has an elevator, so no struggling with luggage up flights of stairs. Overall good value for money.

Disliked: Amenities
The bathroom was without any conditioner, just a small shampoo. Most staff were not friendly or courteous. Only the front desk staff is polite. The one and only elevator is kind of jumpy and scary with buttons that’s not very responsive. One bed was right next to the noisy fan unit which blows strongly onto the bed even when I turned off the cooling air conditioner and only use fan. The grid wasn’t able to tilt up so I ended up having to use a pillow to block the strong wind blowing against my head all night long!
It was impossible to avoid the fan blowing right onto the bed
