It’s a new accommodation in town but doesn’t have the freshly renovated smell at all! The bed is very comfy and I slept like a baby throughout the night. It’s a shared bathroom hotel but the hotel only accommodates dozen of people at the same time thus they are cleaned and well maintained. Very close to the hot tourist spots and restaurants. A cleaner is here to keep the whole place hygienic. Not to mention the indoor plants make the space really nice and green. Would love to stay here again.
