The front service impressed me SO much. The bar area showed a BEAUTIFUL decoration. The room was of good size. It was modern and clean. I found awesome breakfast. It offered good off-road parking.
I found the room LIKE ice, as I checked in late on my first night. The heating did not function. It blew only cold air. Windows offered poor sound-proofing, as the rooms stayed very close to a busy road. EVERY car sounded loud in the roadside rooms. I did not like that.
