Nice spot, located close to several tourist attractions. Easy to walk to lots of places, and a really good continental breakfast. We showed up 4 hours prior to check in due to travel times they let us store our bags. Very nice of them, would definitely recommend!

It is well-located, within walking distance of the train station, and other points of interest. There are many options for shopping, dinner, groceries, laundry, and everything you need. The facilities are old and basic, but they are of good value for a short stay for bead and breakfast.

Tired Hotel
The negatives far outweigh the positives of this hotel. It is a great location and the staff could not have been nicer. This is a very tired hotel and very uncomfortable. The carpets are extremely worn and the rooms were clean, but the mosquitoes were relentless. I think the cleaners would leave the Window open when they were cleaning because we were swatting them every night. I do not recommend this hotel.
