bright and super clean stay

clean hotelbright lightingreasonable price
i found the hotel very clean. it is located about a fifteen-minute walk from the town center, which suited me. i liked the bright lighting and the large mirrored area provided for doing hair and makeup. breakfast and the evening meal were very good and reasonably priced.
the room was warm and there was no air conditioning so i had to open the window. this meant some noise from traffic and people outside at night.
Dining

the breakfast offered a variety of choices, including fresh fruit, pastries, and hot items like scrambled eggs and bacon. the dining area was bright and spacious, with tables nicely spaced apart. the staff kept everything well-stocked and clean during service.
