Liked the location, plenty of fast food,cafe's and supermarkets. But lack of Air Cond, made room too stuffy at night. No sink meant the jug had to be filled up up in the bathroom. Limited utensils and no dish washing liquid to wash anything. No toaster or hair dryer, so be prepared to pack everything including the kitchen sink.
