Very clean & comfortable. Check in was difficult since person checking us in didn’t understand English very well & had to call someone else to speak with me. Breakfast was well laid out and good selection but only 2 upholstered chairs to sit in with no table.

Everything went smooth since the booking to the stay. We liked the cleanliness of the place and the location. The only thing we could suggest is to replace the shampoo and conditioner with something easier to open, because the poly bag seal is really hard to tear it. Thank you
