Good value for price. Slight strong smell when first entered room, but after running the AC it went away. I’m also very sensitive to smells so could just be me. Aside from that the bed was comfortable, breakfast options were great, check-in was smooth and in a good location. The hotel owner/attendant was very friendly!
