The rooms were very clean and tidy. I stayed in one of the smaller rooms and it seemed a lot smaller than what i was expecting, but it was adequate for what i needed. I was there for an event out of town, so this was suitable for a short stay or if you are just passing through. Staff are very polite and friendly. The property is located directly in the center of town and unfortunately i noticed some noisy locals out on the street around midnight on the Friday and Saturday nights. Hopefully not a common occurrence, but otherwise the place is a great place to stay at.

Considering this was a last minute booking, and quite late in the evening - the staff were incredibly courteous and helpful. Although this is budget accommodation the staff gave better customer service than often received at more expensive accommodation. Thank you 😊

Edullinen majjoitus hyvällä sijainnilla

Osallistuin kansainväliseen kävelytapahtumaan. Olen yöpynyt täällä aiemminkin. Edullinen hinta-laatu suhde ja keskeinen sijainti vaikuttivat paikan valintaan. Majoitus sisälsi juuri sen minkä tarvitsin, ei mitään ekstraa, mutta en ollut sitä etsinytkään.

Terrible experiencia!! No lo recomiendo

Horrible, llegué a las 6 pm, salí por 2 horas y cuando regresé, alguien entró por la puerta principal con un destornillador y salió por la ventana, la cual quebró y me robaron mis AirPods, kindle, celular, y todos los cargadores y cables.
