Mona

Liked: Staff & service
I booked this property for my husband. He had an urgent matter to attend to and we chose it because it was close to where he needed to go and the price was attractive. He liked it but stated it might be for younger population that doesn’t mind being in a hostel. Overall it served the purpose. And staff were very friendly!
