Clean place. I had seen reviews about the safety in the neighbourhood, but it didn't pose a problem to me. If you're going to use an Uber, then safety shouldn't be a concern.

The pool was too Small and quality of water decieving. It was Well located near By Market. Easy to Wall to/from main places. Clean room but noisy heat pump. Breakfast served on paper plates et wooden ustensils (cheap). All in all, it wasn’t expensive, so you got what you paid for.
