A simple hotel, but I loved how easy it was to walk everywhere—restaurants, 7/11, trains, etc. It was quiet, felt safe, and while the room was basic, it was comfortable and cool when needed. The staff were friendly, and I have no complaints at all!

The location really is convenient for everything you need or want. The air conditioning works really well. I noticed that there were bugs and places that needed to be cleaned. The bedding wasn't in good condition and the matress was very hard. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

Tiny home

It’s a small place to stay in but for the price it was very good. The beds were decent and bathroom not to bad. Good for a quick stay or don’t mind staying in a cheap cramped place for a long period for just sleep then it’s perfect. They freely supply extra needs and front desk workers were so nice and helpful.

The rooms are small but very functional. Once you get last that, the location is convenient and the staff is very helpful. The lack of window may throw people off, but you get used to it pretty quickly. Specially after a tiring day out!
