I arrived and found coffee tea and snacks ready. It felt so thoughtful after my journey i woke to breakfast available in the large kitchen i enjoyed that convenience. the surrounding area felt peaceful and safe. It gave me a sense of calm. sunny and other staff helped me feel very welcome. They sorted out everything i needed.
The carpet had some stains. It was a very minor issue in an otherwise good room

location good, upkeep not so much

great locationunclean roomclogged drain
the location was honestly great for what i needed.
The upkeep was a major issue. the room felt unclean. The carpet clearly hadn't been vacuumed properly, and there were these gross stains on the furniture. worst of all, the shower drain was clogged with hair, super unhygienic and made showering pretty unpleasant. i definitely expected more for the price.

I was a little disappointed upon arrival. The room did not seem properly cleaned as there were some stains on the carpet. the tea and coffee facilities lacked cups and milk. I felt these details diminished the quality of my stay somewhat. It is a shame because the place has potential.
