The staff was friendly. The room was very clean. I found everything I needed there (including a comfortable bed).
The air conditioning system was not working correctly. I complained about it, but the issue remained unresolved. The location is somewhat difficult if you rely on public transport. (A bus stop is nearby, but the bus runs infrequently.)
