Fabienne

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service
The service was……. lacking. The staff was not very helpful. It was like except for the restaurant staff nobody actually enjoyed their work so they did the bare minimum. This was the exact opposite of what we experienced at other hotels and guesthouses throughout our vacation. The good things were that the facilities were neat and in pretty good repair. There was a convenience store right off of the lobby, bus and train stations in easy walking distance, and the airport bus stopped right in front of the hotel. But if you wanted to actually spend time at the hotel this one is not it. The room was tiny.
