Pros:

I really liked the hotel because of its good location. It is close to the main market, with plenty of food options and shops nearby.

I would also like to mention the manager, Sunny, who was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. He was always kind and made the experience even more enjoyable.

Pros:

Sehr nette Begrüßung, einfache Kommunikation und schnelle Antworten auf Fragen. Hilfestellung bei der Wegbeschreibung bzw. wie man am besten vom Flughafen zur Unterkunft kommt.
Alles da, was man braucht, ruhige Straße. Supermarkt in unmittelbarer Nähe genauso wie öffentliche Verkehrsmittel (Tube und Bus). Tee und Instantkaffee und Wasserkocher im Zimmer war perfekt für ein kleines Getränk nach dem Aufwachen.

Cons:

Man merkt, dass das Zimmer eher älter ist, teilweise Macken an den Wänden und paar Ablagerungen an den Armaturen im Bad. Störte mich jedoch wenig.
