The hotel has a great location, making it easy to access and close to everything you need within a 5-minute drive. The rooms were initially filthy after two days' stay, but I read they are currently renovating. Despite that, the rooms were spotless. The staff was very friendly, and I would definitely recommend this place to our friends.
