7.4Verified guest“Essentially fine and good value, but my room faced the street with heavy traffic even at night. Closing the windows didn't help much; the noise from buses and scooters made it impossible to sleep well.”
7.4Verified guest“It's a small one-star hotel, so expectations shouldn't be too high. Prices are good and the location is excellent, right next to the station and the centre. The room was clean.”
