No frills but price was right
So glad we discovered this hotel. Super affordable, very functional without feeling cheap. No frills but we didn’t need them. Bunk beds were comfortable. TVs didn’t work but it wasn’t a big deal. Location was fine, maybe a couple blocks away from the main tourist areas but didn’t feel sketchy. Will stay here again.
