We checked in late night/early morning. Staff was friendly & accommodating. The first room we were given immediately smelled of wet carpet, quickly discovering the shower faucet would not turn off. So we switched rooms. Though the room as bigger, there was a fraction of the towels as the first room, the floor hadn’t been vacuumed because there was visible mud/dirt next to the sofa bed which was littered with stains. Breakfast was not worth trying. It may be affordable but I’d consider a better option.
