I booked two nights just by looking at the pictures, but when I arrived, the place smelled terrible and was completely different from the photos. Now I understand why the room was so cheap. I stayed only one night and canceled the second

Quiet and clean.

The AC worked very well, the room was quiet and clean. It was very convenient for my medical appointment. The facilty appeared old but was more than worth the price. I would stay again.
