clean room brand new bedding outdated picture worn exterior

the room was very clean (i really appreciate cleanliness). the bedding looked brand new. it was great to have a private bathroom attached to the room.

i found the current pictures online were outdated. the exterior of the building looks a bit worn. i also thought the staff didn't speak much english, made communication a little difficult.

The staff were kind (which i really appreciated) and allowed me to check in early because i was exhausted from traveling. my room had all the necessary amenities, and it was good value. i especially appreciated the cleanliness. The room was super clean. i've honestly stayed in pricier places with far fewer facilities.

Satisfactory stay

convenient location consistent temperature no reply no spaces

The location was very convenient. The managers were helpful and nice. The shower had proper hot water with a consistent temperature. Other hotels of the same type have electric showers with fluctuating temperatures I liked the constant hot water here.

I tried to contact the hotel beforehand regarding parking. Nobody replied to me. I arrived and was told to park around the corner but there were no spaces I had to arrange to leave my car at a friend's and get transportation to and from
