    The place was absolutely great, we enjoyed it. The staff where truly friendly, overall. The hotel was placed in the very central location close to the bus station. Lucky that it was a 10-15 minute walking distance from banh mi Vietnam, offering food to go.

    The room was wonderful with television and a private entrance.

    Kind, nice stuff towards all guests. Location very close to the city centre, Mepe bus station and the central market in the heart of the city.

    The staff were truly friendly and nice, and the free parking was available. We took a single room and it had multi-channel TV and a private entrance...

    There were quite hard beds.

    I had a great stay at this hotel in the heart of the city. It was conveniently located near the Tico bus station, making it easy for me to catch my early morning bus. The cleanliness of the hotel exceeded my expectations. The facilities were well-maintained and the staff was friendly and helpful. Additionally, the hotel was within walking distance to a supermarket, which was convenient for grabbing any necessities during my stay.

    Almost perfect, but there were some noise issues during the night. There was banging on doors and loud shouting in the communal areas, which disturbed my sleep.

    We had a great experience staying at a budget-friendly hotel in a picturesque area. Despite the small size of the room, the staff was warm and helpful, providing us with useful information and even helping us with our errands. They went above and beyond by accommodating our request for a quieter room and bringing a bar fridge for our medication. The hotel also ensured the safety of our car throughout the night. Although the hotel had its drawbacks, such as the noise from a nearby bar and the lack of hot water in the shower, we still had a smooth and convenient stay. I would recommend this hotel for its friendly staff and convenient location near the bus station.

    The value for money at this hotel was excellent, with quirky and unique room features that added a fun touch to the stay. The staff were very helpful and accommodating, even finding me a room with a window when I asked.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved by adding more variety to the menu.

    They offer airport transfers, so convenient when I don't feel like dealing with taxis. The 24-hour front desk was handy when I forgot my key after a wild night out. And free WiFi? Well, that's a big plus for posting all those embarrassing party photos online!

    Oh, just a small detail. the WiFi only works in public areas.
