I did not expect 5 stars facilities but no matter how cheap the hotel is, cleanliness is basic and expected.
Pros:

Affordable

Cons:

- The water jug was half filled when I checked in. Maybe from the previous occupier. This should be cleaned before new customer check-in.

- Toilet at common area was dusty and unkept.
