“In my opinion, this two-star option seems more suitable for travelers prioritizing budget over polished stays. While some praise the staff's helpfulness, particularly one individual, recurring issues with room conditions and amenities raise concerns. For those accustomed to no-frills motels and willing to overlook certain shortcomings, it may suffice, but setting expectations accordingly is key.”
