Reviews and Ratings
The hotel room I stayed in was quite disappointing due to the musty smell permeating the air, visible mildew, low water pressure in the shower, and a small size. Unfortunately, the noise from the back door slamming until late evening was also bothersome. However, the staff was incredibly friendly and reassuring at check-in.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms lacked proper curtains and had some cleanliness issues like mildew smell and dust, the staff was genuinely friendly and accommodating. The location was convenient for my needs, but the noise from a slamming door near my room was bothersome. The dining experience had good options but ended earlier than expected. Overall, there were ups and downs during my stay.
The hotel was clean and neat, but the rooms were so tiny they didn't have room for dresser drawers. The mildew smell was noticeable around window and wall outlets, and there was minimal water pressure in the stand up shower. Despite these issues, the room was orderly and clean.
