The room is seriously different from the picture, not cost-effective at all, the room is very small! Check out early and no refund! I am speechless

The garage was converted and it was OK;
The bath water smelled of sulfur, please do not disturb if you mind;
No service, but it was worth the price. Overall, it was OK and worth staying in, and the room rate was cheap.
