The rooms have been described as well presented, bright, clean and comfortable with all the necessary amenities included for a pleasant stay.

Complimentary tea and coffee making facilities as well as a small fridge added extra comfort and convenience.

The front desk staff have been described as welcoming, professional and extremely helpful. Staff do their best to meet any special requests, as well as providing assistance with booking tours, organising a sim card for your phone, exchanging money and providing directions.

Guests recommended bringing ear plugs especially if you're a light sleeper as the streets are busy and the sound of local traffic can be noisy.

Cleaning oversights have been reported with guests complaining that upon arrival the rooms had not been thoroughly cleaned and at times evidence of previous guests, such as hair in the bathroom, had been founds. In some instances ants have also been found in the rooms.

Guests reported that the hotel is set in an old building and both the rooms and decor are dated. The bathrooms, though functional, would also benefit from refurbishment.
