This is my second time at this hotel, and all I can say is how wonderful it is! Very convenient and affordable. I don’t like the small rooms, but that’s what a hostel hotel it’s all about. I recommend a lot if your just saying for a few days and don’t have many bags. Maybe as a start up hotel!

Nice rooms, and shared bathroom/shower facilities were clean and always available. Rooms were tight for 3 people but worth the price, location is a bit inconvenient for what we were doing.
