The stairs were somewhat difficult to manage with our luggage. The area was noisy. We could easily hear the people in the area across from the hotel.

This hotel is located just beside the bus stop and the dark-sky star-gaze starting point. So, it is very convenient. This convenience is significant in view of the unpredictable windy/raining condition in the area and the time of star gazing (after 10pm). Another thing I like the hotel is the breakfast.
