Works ok for an overnight business trip.
Pros:

The bar and restaurant are all nicely decorated and well appointed. The breakfast was good, the price was reasonable.

Cons:

The rooms are clean and have what you need but they are a bit jaded. The bathroom was fine but at the end of its life. Renovations are just a little overdue. But it’s fine for the price.

Pros:

Close to the local amenities we required. Air conditioned. Hot water. Reception staff.

Cons:

Only 1 person for the bar and restaurant so slow service. Shower in room either hot or cold, no water pressure, showerhead was from the 1960s. No electric socket by bed. I use a cpap machine so it was hard to reach electric socket.
