First, last and only stay.

Small, cramped and cold. Check-in became self check-in the day before because it is outside high-season. The mattress was good but off center, so I nearly feel out of the bed twice. The toilets were nice and clean, with the exception of the ugle and damaged floor. The paper towel was also at a laughable quality. Doing check-out in the early morning I struggled to find the box where I should return the key card to, as there where no notice.

It was clean, staff were friendly enough. But they charged us to leave our luggage with them! Although we were going to stay with them for five days. The room was clean but very small. The bathroom was clean and practical. Room was very hot as there is no air-con, so there was no option except to open the window. But it was really really noisy. And noise and music was nonstop whole night till 6 in the morning. Between heat and noise, we didn't sleep at all. I won't stay there again
