Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Infrastructure needs attention

Toilet not working and wifi intermittent. There were no views outside and it felt claustrophobic. Staff tried hard and were friendly but a major upgrade is needed.

Good for the price

The room I was given was spacious. The lighting in the room was dim. Wifi was adequate, tho slow at times. A curtain separated the bath facilities from the rest of the room, which is not ideal if you are traveling with a companion. The shower did not have a separate stall, but if you do not mind that, then no problem.
