convenient location train stations limited english dust piles
The location was GREAT, near the bus stop and train stations. The hotel had a laundromat. I could even see the status of the washing machines on the TV.
The staff had limited english skills. There were visible dust piles in the room, and the shower had a funky smell, unfortunately.

helpful staff free alcohol convenient location visible dust funky smell poor cleaning
i appreciated the supermarket being just below the hotel. the staff spoke good english and was friendly. i liked the free flow of alcohol from 5-8pm and normal drinks from 1-9pm. they also included snacks, like nuts and muffins.
lots of dust piles were visible in the room. there was a funky smell in the room, especially in the shower. they have this eco cleaning. it's okay, but not vacuuming even though the floor is really dirty.
