helpful staff good breakfast convenient location faulty shower small room bad drain
Moha's assistance with transport was much appreciated. He picked us up and helped us find transport. The staff were friendly and the location was convenient. I found the breakfast to be quite good.
The shower did not work properly in the bathroom. Water was everywhere. The drain wasn't working. I found the pictures to be much better than the reality. The room was not what I paid for, it was small.
