This is an ultimate budget room. Some would say it's fine, it has a bed and bathroom but I felt very dirty in it. Box air con looks filthy, bathroom was tiny and toilet got wet when showering, no basin in bathroom, no hand towel or soap, was only given 2 pillows and they were paper thin. Would have preferred to pay an extra $50 and stay somewhere comfy across the road.

Staff was rude on arrival. One word quetions and answers. "Yes, credit card, room, stairs". Didn't say hello or welcome. Might had a bad day but really no excuse. Room was cosy, thin pillow but all in all the room was good.

one of the reception workers was really nice, but the rest of the stay was not good. I let them know that the bathroom fan was filthy and I have asthma, they told me they would clean it but when we got back it was still filthy. and they didn't clean the fridge either. they gave a sheltered area in the corner of their carpark and random people go to smoke and drink there. I would never stay again!
