the staff was indeed friendly.

The room i had was quite small and dimly lit. it was difficult to see properly, especially inside the closet. I had to use my phone's flashlight to find anything. the bathroom was also strangely arranged, with the toilet positioned very close to the sink. this made it a bit awkward to move around in.
