central stay

great location clear instructions
the location was great, right in the town center. i was able to find parking nearby. i appreciated the clear instructions received before arrival about parking.
the toilet paper roll holder was too far from the toilet. it was a minor inconvenience.
Location
9/10
the hotel is centrally located and there are numerous restaurants in the immediate area. i also found that i could park for free near the church, a short five-minute walk from the hotel, convenient.
Facilities
8/10
the room included a small kitchen with a refrigerator and a stovetop, very useful for preparing small meals. the room size felt adequate and having a kitchen meant i could avoid eating out for every meal .

The kitchen had great facilities and a coffee machine. The shower provided hot water and amazing pressure. I found the location excellent for tour pickups just around the corner from the main bus stops!!!
I noticed the patio door did not seem to lock properly.

average studio stay

sewage smell dirty floor
The hallway had a really unpleasant odor. It smelled like sewage and trash.. it was constant for all four nights. thankfully, the smell didn't get into the studio, but i had to hold my breath whenever i walked through that hall. the studio floor also felt really dirty. i could tell after walking around for a short time without socks..
