The hotel is good, but it's a little worn down. The fridge in my room didn't work, and I had to call the front desk 4-5 times over 3 days before it was finally working. There were also small problems with the toilet. They all got resolved, but it was effort on my part.

The room was cold and musty at first. I figured out how to turn on the heat which helped with temperature but the musty smell remained. I asked for another room and the next room also had a musty smell and the floor had a big stain. The breakfast was nice and the service staff were kind. It's close to the airport.
