10/10 Excellent
"The staff here was wonderful and so helpful every time we needed help during our stay. Very professional yet friendly which we really appreciated. Hotel ambiance was nice as well and area is great. There is a lot of food and shopping stores within walking distance and a shopping mall just down the road. Would definitely recommend for an affordable stay."
