I was a bit anxious about my stay after reading the reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised! The room was clean and tidy, and the location, while not perfect, was convenient for what we needed. However, there were some extra costs I didn't expect, and overall, the experience wasn't without its drawbacks.

I had a really mixed experience at the hotel. On one hand, the location was excellent, with easy access to transportation and supermarkets nearby. On the flip side, the room condition left a lot to be desired, with issues like rust and general wear and tear. While the staff were helpful, the overall cleanliness and maintenance made my stay less enjoyable than I had hoped for.
