Last-minute booking via Expedia, but possibly one of the fastest-ever check-in. Second-floor room, one back from a busy road – remarkably quiet. The room and bathroom condition.1st room on my trip with UTH milk potals (remember to buy milk before arrival)

Overall, very clean and comfortable. It could even be better if the room was not smelling of cigarette smoking. I will be happy to stay there and recommend it highly.

Property was tidy but no cook top and fixed heaters where broken and a freestanding put in place needed a bit of maintenance to lift it to the next level, linen covers where dated and could also need a revamp overall well priced and matched conditions, Was suited for our stopover
