“For a reasonable price, this place gets the essentials right: clean, spacious rooms with effective AC, and a staff that goes the extra mile. Its location is a sweet spot, tucked just off a main tourist drag for peace and quiet, yet still incredibly convenient. I think it's a solid choice if you value service and location.”

The double room was larger than i thought. i especially appreciated the air conditioning. It was a lifesaver when the temperature soared above 35°. the room was very clean too.

i wish there had been a mug available for the tea and coffee provided.

Excellent Location and Modern Access

convenient locationsmooth processmoney saving

The location proved very convenient, I found the Cathedral and main shopping area were about a ten-minute walk away. Access to the building and my room was through a pin number, provided after I submitted all the required information online. I experienced a smooth check-in process. Breakfast at a local cafe was a good tip, since it saved me some money.

The bathroom had grime on the shower cubicle. I mentioned this, but it was not addressed .

There was a breakfast salon. It features a coffee machine, orange juice, and tea for guest use. You can buy groceries to make your own breakfast there.
