A low end hotel with old building and otger facilities. The rooms and bathrooms are tiny, and the lifts can't accommodate more than 3 persons. The best thing about the hotel is its location as it is conveniently located near the main attractions and also has lot of food options nearby. The staff was friendly and supportive .
