"The room was very clean and comfortable; the newly renovated bathroom had a great shower; the fridge had a dedicated freezer compartment; there was a nice breakfast table with chairs; and the owner & staff were very welcoming. You would need to bring your own hangars and be aware there is no coffeemaker. We would definitely stay there again."
"The gentleman at check-in was rude and not very welcoming. He did not explain the hotel's amenities and was not helpful when I asked about changing my room, even though I offered to pay for an upgrade. In contrast, the lady at the reception was friendly and professional, and the breakfast team was warm, attentive, and provided excellent service."
"The AC unit needs to be in the bedroom area if not they need to tear the wall down for better air circulation to the bedroom area. A ceiling fan would be ideal for better circulation.
Please turn on AC and fridge before guest arrives so it can be cool at arrival especially during summer months. It was hot in there when we arrived. Disappointed. It took a long while to cool room and wasn’t cool enough throughout the night."
