Stayed in a room 314 next to the road. It was very loud starting at 5am motorcycles, buses, trucks all traveling down the same road to work. It t was also very bright. There was no blow dryer or shampoo, the water temperature was very touchy. Bed was comfortable and it was a convenient spot in town and not go explore the mountain forties near by. I would not stay longer than a night.
