Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Clean, location, hot shower, extra blanket, big lockers
Negative: There is no place to get warmer, everything is outside and you’re constantly cold. The rooms are cold. Breakfast & dinner aren’t really included, it’s 50pesos (cheap though) but again, in the cold…
Summary: If you’re easily cold, it’s not your place
