“For a first-time visit, especially for young solo female travelers, its location near transport, markets and coffee shops is a definite advantage; having a sink and mini-fridge in the room is a plus. While some may find the facilities basic, especially given some noise, the welcoming staff stood out. It's a fair trade for budget-conscious travelers seeking convenience.”
