Nice Budget Hotel
Nice clean hotel and room. Convenient location. Air conditioning worked well. Bed was a little too firm for my liking but would still stay again.

Overnight stay
The staff member who checked us in could have been a bit more welcoming. Room was dated. Could do with a renovation but the bathroom was great. Beds were comfortable and pillows good. Breakfast was more limited than other hotels we’ve been in. Heard other guests keeping on asking for more plates, butter etc.
