i noticed they prepared complimentary coffee and snacks near the lobby, a thoughtful touch. my room was very spacious and clean, something i greatly value when traveling (it makes a big difference!).

i encountered a slight inconvenience, as the hotel requested guests to leave their key at reception each time they left. while the staff was always present, this policy felt a little unusual.

Adequate But With Issues

awkward toilet paper holderstrong musty smell

I had a few frustrations . The bathroom really needs an update. The toilet paper holder was in a very awkward spot. It made sitting on the toilet uncomfortable. Plus, there was a strange smell in the hallway, like must or mold. The overall quality seemed a bit lacking!!!
