During my stay at Rain Drops Hotel, I had mixed feelings. While the location was great for my needs, the room maintenance was quite disappointing, with issues like old furniture and malfunctioning air conditioning. The breakfast was a highlight, offering a good variety, but overall, it felt like I couldn't expect much more from a state-run hotel.
