The shower was supposedly a fancy rainfall one. but it flooded the entire bathroom every time i used it! staff just shrugged and said it always does that. also, the room seemed like it hadn't seen a proper cleaning in ages. Disappointing for the price

stretching matpour-over coffeefar locationcoffee supplies

The hotel room was spacious.. I liked the stretching mat and roller provided for guest use. Pour-over coffee and a mini fridge were available in the room.

The location was not ideal for exploring further into the neighborhood. I always had to ask for a coffee cup and creamer, they were not automatically replaced.
