Nice!
I had a wonderful stay. Check-in was quick and easy, and the staff were warm and welcoming from the moment I arrived. My room was clean, and comfortable. The location was great! with plenty of stuff just a short walk away. Overall, I had a fantastic experience and would happily recommend this hotel to anyone.

What I like is that it is a simple cozy place. Not much to ask and that's why I like the price. The dislike, near the highway street where certain women walk the night and day street if you know what I mean.
