The premises were clean and well-maintained, and the breakfast was adequate, though nothing particularly noteworthy. However, the air conditioning in our room was rather noisy. We seemed to become accustomed to the sound after a day. Additionally, there were some stains on one of the bed sheets and a pillow. Upon informing the housekeeping staff, they promptly replaced them for us. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.
