adequate stay, but with some drawbacks
poor sound insulation cramped shower cubicle
the sound insulation was not good at all. i could clearly hear conversations and noise from neighboring rooms, very disruptive, particularly at night. also, the bathroom was quite small. the shower cubicle was so cramped that it was difficult to move around comfortably.

a decent stay near the station
great location train station nice variety breakfast options good air conditioning small bathroom thin walls poor cleaning
the location was great, super close to the train station. the breakfast had a nice variety of options, that i found quite satisfactory. the air conditioning worked really well, it was a real plus during a hot day.
The bathroom was particularly small, i found it a bit cramped. the walls seemed thin, so i could hear quite a bit of noise from other rooms. the room cleaning was not great. The cleaner didn't replace used spoons, leaving them dirty.
