I was quite disappointed with my stay. The room was small and not well appointed, lacking basic amenities like proper bed linen and a bedside locker. Although the staff were friendly and accommodating, the overall experience felt very dated, with noisy rooms detracting from the comfort. It might be okay for a night, but not for an extended stay.
