9.4/10 Exceptional! (179 reviews)
Clean place with friendly accommodating staff. The only thing to note is that the air conditioning unit makes a sound every few minutes (especially when it is on) which makes it difficult to sleep. Apparently it’s an issue in all rooms. We had to ask for a fan for the second night which the helpful staff arranged for us and they also gave us some ear plugs.
