night noiseunhelpful staff
the noise at night was really frustrating. it sounded like there was a club nearby , and i could hear music late into the night. also , the staff wasn't particularly helpful when i asked about it. i found the lack of soundproofing to be a major issue , impacting my sleep quality significantly.

Charming Stay Near the Action

My room was super clean. I found air conditioning a welcome addition. A vending machine with reasonable prices proved useful. I stored my luggage free.
I could hear some noise from a disco during the night.
