Nice welcome, room 1 satisfactory, bathroom towels off white and seemed like they needed a good soak in nappysan. Shower water pressure extremely low, only turned on hot water tap to get warm water. Window rattled all night even though they were closed. Room needs some attention.

Room was dated but acceptable for the budget price. Major issue is that the reception is unattended, this can work but you need to send guests check in instructions either by SMS or the Expedia app.
