It’s basically an upscale hostel. Staff is full of English speaking foreigners who like to be left alone and quick to say “no” to requests. The “Hotel” doesn’t offer anything, just a couple of q-tips, comb and slippers. Luggage service is next door, they don’t help with that either. Location is ok, 10-15 min walk to station convenience store around the corner and a couple good restaurants close by. Room is super tight if you travel with a stroller, the 3 legged table was a hazard for my 1 and 3 yo. We stayed 7 days and they cleaned the room twice. Should have paid a bit more and stayed at an actual hotel.
