Excellent value The rooms have been newly renovated. Extra large, compact refrigerator with microwave An actual table meant for your luggage Friendly staff NOTE : if you’re staying for more than one day, you need to tell them that you want fresh towels daily. I’m not sure they do any room service other than that, but you can ask.
