Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I had a good time at this hotel. Everything is closer...restaurants, gas station, many other stores. The hotel is clean and it is of international standard. You will not regret staying at this place. Oh! And thanks for free early check-in.
