Nice budget friendly hotel with breakfast but delayed checked in due to booking.com
Pros:

The price including breakfast and location was budget friendly

Cons:

Hold up for 1 hr due to wrong information from booking.com.to hotel in room reservation. i booked and paid for 3 room which was clearly visible inside the apps but booking.com told the hotel the booking was only for 1 room.
