"We booked a twin room with two queen-sized beds, which was more than enough space for four of us. The room had a hairdryer, iron, microwave, safe, and kettle, but no refrigerator. Slippers, toothpaste, and toothbrushes weren't provided, and I'm not sure if they're available upon request for free. Breakfast and laundry services both incur additional charges. This hotel seems to be one of the more popular options in this small town, which isn't very big, just a few streets lined with buildings. Right outside the hotel, you'll find various restaurants; while there aren't many, they offer a good range of cuisines. There's a medium-sized supermarket not too far away, stocked with fresh produce, fruits, vegetables, dairy, bread, sandwiches, eggs, yogurt, milk, and deli items. Many tourists frequent it, and their self-made thick soups are delicious and affordable. The hotel parking is paid and requires your room key to access. There's a hose in the parking lot for self-car washing, but I didn't use it as I opted to wash my car at a gas station instead."
