The staff was not nice at all. Worse, the kitchen cleaning guy was very annoying. While cleaning, he almost threw things making huge noises.

Can be a little bit noise, the room was tiny with thin walls, they made 3 or 4 rooms of 1. In the other side the staff is kind, and they include breakfast, dinner and a beer. And it's a cool place. No parking spot available for us.
