8.4/10 Very Good! (10 reviews)

The good; if you are looking for a quiet location this might be your place, the location is directly across a wonderful small eatery that you don't want to miss. Not too far is a family mart.. Staff was helpful. The bad; the photo layout for the room I selected is not the same, there is 2 small twin beds that aren't together, the room was musky and had an odor. Carpet felt like it has been neglected, there was dust accumulation and allergies or illness was happening, the codes to get in were a bit of a hassle. There were many mosquito's present and for some reason in the room. There was no shower that you can stand regularly. The refrigerator was broken. The air-conditioning needed to be on if you wanted fresh air.
