The location was convenient! it was just outside the main bustle. the triple room i booked offered ample space with nice bedsheets and pillows. breakfast was satisfactory. the staff stored my luggage after checkout as my airport trip was later. That was useful.

my room was next to reception so there was some noise from people at the desk. i also heard what sounded like a bathroom fan running much of the night. this made sleeping difficult!

Oh my gosh, the staff were totally amazing! Ranjith at reception got me sorted with maps and bus routes. My room was super clean, I mean, seriously clean. It was super close to everything too. I could hop on a bus and be in the city center super quick! Like, I am already planning my next trip, I have to go back!

The walls felt a tad thin, and I could hear the neighbors a little bit.
