Didn’t get the room we booked.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

We didn’t get the room we booked for. The hall was extremely small and there was no shower room and there was no ventilation either.

I love the property and the location
Pros:

Location is very convenient. We stayed at the family suite which very spacious to fit all 5 of us. It’s a 2 star hotel so don’t expect to get 5 stars facility. However the property is very clean and newly renovated (since 2020)

Cons:

They didn’t have any stove inside the unit which will make it more convenient for budget travel family like us.

The inn had everything I could hope for in a short overnight stay.
Pros:
