The well-maintained condition, especially considering its 1949 origins, speaks volumes about the care taken here, making it more than just a nostalgic pit stop.

The check-in was very efficient. The premises had a secure site with a fence at front and gates closed at night. The accommodation was clean, that is true.
The receptionist was not very cute during my arrival.
