Very clean rooms and a safe location for families to gather and enjoy a peaceful time together.Close to the main shopping and restaurant locations that are within walking distance. The VC train station is also within walking distance. The host communicates well with you during your stay. If we visit the area again, we’d definitely stay here again! Highly recommend!
