Pros

“In my opinion, this property presents a budget-conscious option with some inconsistencies. While some rooms appear well-maintained and clean, others show signs of wear and deferred maintenance, and cleanliness could be improved. For travelers prioritizing value, it's worth considering the potential trade-offs.”
