We went for NRA. The NRA bus stop was really close. They gave us water every day. Excellent room. Not enough queen rooms, so you have to book in advance.

Liked: Staff & service
It was okay for our four night stay, gave me and my sister a place to sleep at least. There's no daily houskeeping and some of the furniture was dirty. Staff was friendly and helpful. An alright place to book if you don't spend much time in the hotel room, which is easy because of its location; its close to the train station and tourist areas.
