I arrived to the hotel and then they sent to other location, they order breakfast with a view and they only bring it to your room because they don’t have the terrace they show in pictures. 3 days they never did cleaning in the room, blankets were dirty as so the pillow was.
Property was listed to give free airport transfer. Which is false advertising. When reached out they told me its 40 each way then 30. I ended up taking an Indriver for 3 usd. Complete scam. The air conditioning didnt work. So i left the window open and my room was filled with Mosquito. I left qith over 10 bits. Horrible night sleep. I would wake up try to kill some mosquitos then i realized the walls are covered with dead bugs everywhere. Wouldnt recommend at all.the power went completely out for over an hour.

Where to even start? I booked a deluxe single room. I arrived late at night. The hotel name did not match what I booked and the room did not match of what I booked. They did kot have my information, put me in a room that was not finished with construction, dirty is an understatement! The bed smelled and I found hair in my bed. The floors were awfully dirty and the chair stained!!! The young guy at the reception had his friends over at night and kept me awake until 2:30 am. I could not sleep. I left this place early in the morning and asked for refund. They are arguing with Orbitz and don’t want to give me my money back. Horrible place. Stay away!!!
L'hotel et la reception sont a l'etage, il y a un acsenceur mais interdit d'acces.
La chambre est en piteuse etat et malheureusement tres sale.
La chambre est dans le noir car les volets sont fermés afin d'eviter le vis a vis aux immeubles acolés.
Le seul point positif a retenir de cet hotel est que la pression de l'eau permet de prendre une douche agreable.
Sinon a fuir! Surtout au regard du prix.
Jeg tror at denne sted skal ikke kategoriseret under hotel. Lokalitet og prisen er ok , hvis man skal overnatte én nat , stedet er ikke handicap venlige og heller ikke for familie med børn. Personalet er meget hjælpsom og venlige, stedet trænger til ordentligt istandsættelse.
