Very simple clean small hotel with basic amenities. Located in a lively and fun area. Manager permitted us to leave our bags earlier in the morning and return to check in. Larger than a capsule hotel but no extra space to sit or hang out. Just a place to sleep. Perfectly functional.

We booked a 4-night stay here just before Christmas 2025. Just to be clear: this is not a hotel, but an AirBnB style of accommodation. The AC/heater was almost ready to retire, lots of dust on the weird green curtains, kinda dirty decorative pillows/blankets (the brown ones), dirty laundry machine, and it seems that someone actually lives here as there was a name on the front door. During our last night, we actually had a notice to vacate the premises as they were supposedly doing something illegal in regards to licensing. The only good thing about this place was the location as it was very central. In short, we wouldn't book here again.
See the weird brown pillows/blankets.
