Our stay at the hotel was okay, but the shared toilet facility was a letdown. However, the location was perfect and it's a great value for budget travelers.

The room was clean, had a nice big tv and an air conditioner and fan. No problems with the room. Read the details when booking. No fridge or amenities in the room, no bathroom and the shared bathroom has a shower that looks like it has never ever been cleaned (the men's at least). Bring your own shampoo etc. My room had a giant sign outside the window which changed every few seconds. It shone through the closed curtains. Basically it's a good price if you just want a room. Everyone was very nice. But there is room for improvement.

Bit of noise from the bar music but by 10pm it had been turned down a bit and then disappeared completely so no complaints on that score. Owner very helpful and friendly. Room amenities just a bed, one side table and lamp ( two would be better for a double bed) and some shelves. Plus aircon of course. It would be nice to have say a couple of glasses and some water I feel. But absolutely clean and value for money.

This is not a hotel, it is a hostel. The shared washrooms are not clean, the shower stalls are covered in mould above and below. We actually left the hotel because we felt so uncomfortable. The "front desk" is serving staff (not their fault), and it was on a busy Triva night so we were not able to speak to someone. We just wanted to get out. When I contacted TD about the issues they tried to contact the Hotel and they didn't answer it took multiple days to get an answer and the hotel did nothing, no refund. The room was very loud and we could hear multiple strange noises from our AC unit.
