The staff at the front desk was very friendly. They were also very helpful! It's convenient as transportation, shops, and restaurants are very close. The breakfast was fantastic. I definitely recommend it.
The stairs were very steep. I found it difficult to manage them, especially with luggage. My room had a shared bathroom and shower. There also was no air conditioning in my room so it got very warm.
