The hotel is conveniently located with easy bus access to downtown, although the area may feel unsafe at times. The rooms, although small, offer hot water for showers but can be noisy due to the bus stop outside. The staff is accommodating and provides luggage storage after checkout. The dining options are good, with varying quality depending on the cook.
