The staff were friendly, courteous and helpful, and with a shower and a/c in my room, though it was definitely no frills, I had everything I needed for my 2 day stay. The in-house restaurant served good food at a decent price. You'll need to have your own towel, soap, etc. There are plenty of convenient stores and drug stores nearby, so if you forget something, you can acquire what you need easily.
