"Clean and big enought table even a single room. It seems very close to the station but the route to the hotel isn't very easy to walk over especially if you have big luggages. Walk at night is also kinda sketchy. Ofc bumpy road and lack of lighting on the street are the city issue, but the location isn't the best I would say."
