Liked: Cleanliness
Overall, the property was slightly outdated, but the room had been renovated and was clean. A couple of areas that could be improved: The hot water supply was insufficient, forcing us to take cold showers. Guests are required to wear a wristband throughout their stay, which can be inconvenient as it remains on even during showers or when going out. Additionally, when our wristband went missing, the front desk gave us a hard time, despite us having our room keys.
