The staff (Bichu) is always so friendly and helpful. Rooms are simple, but clean. Dehumidifiers in the guests’ absence would be a good move, otherwise a great, cheap place to stop. Free overnight parking on the street!

We arrived after check-in time, and fortunately, we got checked when Bichu happened to come along. He both works and lives there, and was able to check us in. He was fantastic! The room was clean and comfortable! Have to park in car park across street, but that was no problem.
