The bed was comfy, the stay was clean, and location was close to everything needed. Prior to hitting the big road, it was such a serene walk next to the small river.. I'm going to miss it and will surely stay here if I visit again.

The location is good. Near the shopping center and stations. There’s also a 7/11 nearby. The shared bathroom is always clean and has available amenities for use. There’s also food stalls and restaurants which are all walking distance. I also live that they have a massager in the common room which I used especially after a long walk.
