The urban area is not big, so it's very convenient to go anywhere. You can walk to the night market, the beach, and there is a WWS nearby. But for those who are not so lively, it is recommended to avoid this hotel on weekends. It's downstairs on Friday night. In the middle of the night, the loudspeakers and singing and dancing make it impossible to sleep until two or three o'clock.

Staying for four days, the electric drill will sound around 7.30 in the morning on the third day, and the electric drill will sound at 8.40 on the last day, reminding you not to sleep late

The hotel was good. A little outdated. We could smell the humidity in the halls and rooms. The breakfast was excellent and the location perfect.

Room was lovely. Very comfy bed. Convenient location. Shower wets bathroom floor- caution. No face washer. Had to pay $25 for parking, no free spaces so just parked in a reserved spot!
