“What stands out is the helpfulness of the staff, especially their willingness to assist with lost items, plus the location is exceptionally convenient, steps away from the temple and local markets. The rooms provide comfortable accommodation, even in shared spaces, and the availability of free breakfast and tea adds to the appeal for budget-conscious travelers. While some found the walk to the metro a bit lengthy, the overall experience seems positive, marked by cleanliness and a vibrant, international atmosphere.”
