The hotel has a lot of potential with its clean and comfortable rooms and friendly staff, but there were some issues like a lack of basic amenities and inconsistent electricity. On the plus side, the space is generally good and the location is convenient. Unfortunately, a few things could definitely be improved for a better stay.
