Simple, utilitarian hotel—a little run down and very much in need of maintaining (the shower in my room had so much calcium build up the shower head barely worked, and the carpet was visibly stained)—with excellent staff. I’ve stayed here before and would again, but it needs a little love.

Found the room clean and had everything need for a good stay...the staff was very friendly and helpful. It is a heritage building with an era of history and the lounge area has been set up in a colorful way which gives it character. For a one night rest at reasonable price it was worth it.
