The room was spacious and the bathroom is too depending on the room will depend on the size of your window and there is a small roof in the entrance 7ft and a few inches wouldn’t recommend a big truck cause u can't pass in side and u will need to park in the street the inside is small where the parking is and its tight i would recommend to bring a car so that way you can navigate around the tight corners on the way in and out but 10/10 i would recommend this spot to friends the ac is cold too btw.

Warning

The room was filthy. There was dirt everywhere. The toilet was dirty, and the lid/seat was only hanging on by a screw and kept moving. There was no hand soap which was upsetting especially with how dirty the place was. The shower head had this awfully strong pressure that made taking a shower painful and it could not be adjusted. There was also a bunch of rules that they had that were not stated on the booking site, such as no visitors, a cash deposit, and check out was advertised online as 11am but was 10am upon arriving. When i attempted to check out at 5:30am, there was nobody around to assist me. There were also no instructions on how to check out when nobody is around. After waiting and ringing for 20 minutes, I decided to just leave, and I lost my deposit. If you have absolutely no standards and just want a cheap room, then this place is perfect for you

The place was clean, parking a little awkward and tricky, but still worked. It was a good option for the location I needed to be at and the reception clerk was friendly. Always a plus.
