I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While it was reasonably priced and clean, the condition of the rooms and the overall experience left a lot to be desired. The service from staff varied significantly, and the noise levels from neighboring rooms made for a less than peaceful stay. If you are only looking for a quick, budget-friendly overnight option, this might work for you, but I'd recommend looking elsewhere for a longer stay.

Rooms

The rooms were clean overall but definitely dated, and there was an unpleasant smell lingering from stale cigarettes. The pictures online didn't match the reality.

The hotel offers a budget-friendly stay with basic accommodations. While the rooms are spacious and clean, they could use some updates, particularly the mattresses. The staff was helpful and accommodating, but the service could be more consistent. The location is decent, but potential guests should be cautious about parking availability and noise levels from neighboring rooms.

Overall, I found the hotel to be a decent choice for a short stay. The rooms were clean, and the price was quite affordable, which is a plus. However, the mattress was uncomfortable, and the noise levels from neighboring guests were bothersome. The parking situation was a bit concerning as well, with limited spots and no guarantees. If you're planning to stay for a longer visit, it might be worth looking elsewhere.

The hotel has a charming ambiance for its value, with spacious and clean rooms that provided a good night's sleep, even if they show signs of aging. The staff, while helpful and accommodating, experienced some inconsistencies in service. The location is quite convenient for accessing public transport and local shops, but improvements are needed in the upkeep of certain amenities like the bathroom facilities.
