The customer service is the best I've ever had, lovely people. Good, clean and comfortable place to stay at a good price. The only negative thing I could have said was the tv was very old, not a smart tv, so no netflix to go to sleep to.

Very small room with 2 tripping steps in the interior floor. Fairly well equipped. Although it was a Saturday night it was not good value for the price.

Average to small room. Showing its age. Old television. Well appointed with good air conditioning. Let down a little by dirty/used ashtray left on table. And cutting my foot on small sliver of glass left on floor, probably left from previous tenants.
