Rishikuar nga @Melisareta: I was worried about the size at first, but this place is a solid 10/10. It’s absolutely spotless—I was speechless! The bed is cozy, and having pajamas and a shoe polisher provided made me feel so taken care of. Highly recommend for a clean, fuss-free stay.

- You plan to spend 14 hours a day exploring and just need a bed
- You are a solo traveler or a couple with carry-on luggage only
- You appreciate free unlimited coffee and soft drinks
