Overall, the stay was modest but met my basic needs for one night. The room was clean, the bed comfortable, and hot and cold water were available. The fan worked well since there was no air conditioning, and the Wi-Fi was slow but usable. The window did not have a lock, which should be improved for safety. I also believe the hotel could benefit from clearer professional boundaries and stronger guest privacy practices. For a budget stay it was acceptable, but better attention to safety and professionalism would make the experience more reassuring.
