a good stay in the heart of it all
ideal location easy reach thoughtful addition
i found the location ideal. it was close to both train and bus stations, made my arrival and departure seamless. central attractions were also within easy reach, allowing me to explore at my own pace. i noticed a lavanderia nearby, a thoughtful addition for travelers (practicality at its finest!).
the shower could be improved. i felt the shower was a bit small. it made it difficult to move around comfortably when washing.

bad coffee artificial juice
the location was acceptable it was close to the train station.
I had several issues . the breakfast options were disappointing. Nothing seemed fresh. the coffee was particularly bad and the orange juice tasted artificial. It's frustrating when even basic breakfast items are subpar.
