Person at check in was very friendly and helpful, recommended some points of interest with a map during our visit. The room was very clean and quiet during the night with great background views.
The only minor issues was the shower pressure, slow floor drainage and no kitchen sink.

The facilities are relatively complete, but the room is too dark and looks a bit depressing. The washroom is a bit shabby. A few of our lights were broken, and the little girl in charge immediately brought a ladder and replaced them.
