The noise. I got the room #1 , next to the laundry facilities. I also could hear the cars in the main road during the night.
Staff was super friendly. I ordered breakfast with them and got it on time. I appreciated the table in the room to work in my laptop. I felt safe!

TV did not work and WiFi was very slow and intermittent. Management were very unhelpful and I was told he did not have another tv. When both WiFi and TV are advertised as part of what you are paying for then they should work. Not good enough.
Rooms clean and have been updated
