Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests consistently praise the hotel's excellent location, which is close to public transport, shops, and city attractions, making it very convenient for travelers.

However, there are frequent complaints about cleanliness, with several guests noting unclean rooms, lack of housekeeping, and issues with shared bathrooms. Service is also criticized, particularly the absence of staff and poor room maintenance. Bed comfort receives mixed to negative feedback, with some finding the beds uncomfortable or too high. Overall, while the location and value are strong positives, cleanliness, service, and bed comfort are areas needing improvement.
