Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Staff were friendly room was clean, but in rough condition. No air conditioning, they gave you a small fan which barely moved any air. When it did cool at night the window didn’t open up wide enough to allow air in.. no way to charge any devices because they have no usb plugs anywhere
