Review Score: 8

Summary: For a budget hotel you get budget rooms. But they are very noisy, very warm and ours just smelled of damp/ sewerage from the drain. Was rather unpleasant but for one night it served a basic purpose. Not much sleep was had because of how warm the room is. Rather disappointed during summer there’s not cooling facilities like a fan etc. especially when it’s 30c out during the day.
