Solid Stay With Convenient Perks

friendly staffgood showerconvenient locationfree parking
I found the staff to be friendly and helpful . My room was a good size, especially the modern shower in the bathroom. The location was quite convenient, with easy access to the main part of town. Free parking near the center proved a definite advantage.
The entrance road to the hotel is indeed very narrow. Extra care is needed when driving.

The restaurant's food was AMAZING!!! I especially enjoyed the butter chicken, great. Each bite was full of flavor. The limited choice was made up by the quality.

the location was great as it was close to the city centre. parking was available on the nearby streets since the on site parking filled up quickly. the room was okay it was not as nice as i expected from the pictures online.
the infrastructure seemed quite old. i saw layers of green algae below the aircon vent. this felt pretty bad considering the amount they charged per night.
