The location offers convenient bus routes to the city center. The room came with a fan. This addressed the initial stuffiness I noticed upon arrival. I also appreciated the kitchenette with a microwave and mini kettle.

Half of the lights were not working properly. The cooking equipment included only one small pot. The thin walls let a lot of noise in from the busy road outside and the hallway.

adequate stay with notable issues

faulty windowdifficult shower

The room felt quite stuffy despite my efforts to air it out. the window seemed faulty. It either remained slightly ajar, providing minimal ventilation, or it swung wide open with no intermediate setting. additionally, the lack of clear instructions for operating the shower made its use unnecessarily complicated. the temperature was difficult to regulate, resulting in either scalding hot or uncomfortably cold water.
