The fridge was very noisy and the floor was missing wood panels. I really think this should be repaired and room shouldn’t be rented out in this condition. The room was clean however the service lady did not not any coffee the 2nd day. Stayed 2 nights.

Good room for good price. Clean and comfy for a short stay. The woman at the front desk was friendly. Bathroom clean, bed clean as well as the rest of the room.
Maybe the air needed to be refreshed a bit but that's it. We are happy.

The room was spacious and comfortable .
I couldn’t open the window and AC was very noisy .
The room was stuffy and I wasn’t able to set the AC temperature at the lower level.
