Nice tidy little room. Perfect for what we needed as we stayed for a basketball tournament - only thing to improve is the water for the shower was rather cold and didn’t heat up. Other than that happy with our stay - thanks!!

The main door into the room has gaps through which cold air was blowing continuously. This made the room very cold. The Aircon did not work properly, as the room was cold I had set the temperature to 28. Unfortunately, it was still cold. One of the thermal blankets was not working. If the above problems are rectified, then it would be an excellent accommodation and great value for money. Overall, it is budget friendly.

Overall my stay was satisfactory, one thing that I noticed was that the bathroom was a bit smelly which maybe was caused by the toilet leaking some water out of the bottom onto the floor. Also there were a few cockroaches in the room however there was fly spray provided.
