The room was very clean. It also had all the amenities I needed. The staff was friendly and professional. I found the value for money excellent during my trip.

The room was quite small and didn't have enough storage space. The pillows were uncomfortable. They were completely flat. The WiFi was super slow! It did not even connect at times, so I relied on mobile data.
