The hotel is conveniently located near a green area and provides a kitchen in the rooms. However, the beds are small, and the kitchen facilities could be improved. The service at the reception desk was satisfactory, and there are commercial services available, but laundry services were lacking. The hotel is close to downtown, which is a plus, but some rooms might be noisy due to the nearby athletic field. The dining experience was good, with smoked meats offered, although there could be more variety. Overall, a decent stay with mixed aspects.

Super cozy hotel with small kitchen amenities, but tiny beds. The fridge and stove were handy, though the space was tight. The service was excellent at the reception desk but lacked variety in shops and commercial services. The location was superb, surrounded by greenery and right next to the athletic field. The dining options were basic, with hot dogs served, but overall satisfying. The facilities were minimal but adequate for a short stay.
