8.4 out of 10, Very good, (196 reviews)
"Great location and great price. Stayed for one night but had everything we needed. The only minor issue was that the bathroom had no vent/extractor so we had to open up the window to let all the steam out. However in doing so, the bathroom window didn’t have a screen so flys and mosquitoes got in. Other than that 5/5 hotel"
