“This is a practical choice, located conveniently near transport options and commercial areas; the rooms are basic and clean, suited for short stays. The staff is friendly and helpful, though the surrounding neighborhood is not the city's finest. I think it meets expectations for an inexpensive overnight while traveling.”
