Staff was very helpful, our room was ready before check-in time and we really appreciated that after an 8hrs flight. The beds were very comfortable and the AC worked great for the super hot August month. This is a great place to stay at an affordable price. I would definitely stay here again.

The room was clean and the staff was helpful; however, this is clearly a hotel used prostitution as judged by the constant activity and noises throughout the night making it difficult to have a quiet, restful sleep.
