    The staff were really friendly and welcoming. There was a relaxed vibe to the place too. The common areas were really nice to hang out in. The room was very comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was great and I got chatting to some fellow travellers.

    Excellent staff support. Location was good-very close to one bus station, but you need an Uber to get to the others. Easy Walking distance to museum and shops. Great interior wall paintings. Hot showers if i recall. Wifi was ok. Free Breakfast...
