The hotel is as expected, basic and simple. Selling point is of course the location, which was excellent. Stay was mostly fine, the only complaint is that the bedding smelled funky and wasn't as clean as one would expect. No matter how budget friendly, this is not it! Other than that, the staff were friendly and helpful.
