The staff was not very accommodating for our check in. Bathroom layout is terrible. Can hardly fit to use the restroom with the door closed. It is a great location but next time I’ll choose somewhere else.

The room was small, but perfect to have a place to leave your bags and sleep in. If you're outside being a tourist for majority of your stay. I'd recommend. If you plan on spending time in your room, I'd recommend a bigger location.
