Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was clean and had its own patio area. The owner was so helpful and kind, i’m checking in on me throughout my stay, give me suggestions of where to go, helped me arrange rides, made me feel safe and that he cared. I would highly recommend this place, especially as a solo traveler.
