Clean room, very friendly staff and very helpful. Best experience I’ve had and amazingly free laundry with lots of machines available. You can have your own laundry capsule or powder or just 3$ from reception, but using machines are free.

A tidy, if basic hotel. Lacking a restaurant for dinner (walked a few hundred meters to the Deserted Gardens Htl). Ridiculously priced, but I guess if you own all the competition you can charge what you like.
