10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (1 review)
"The hotel is fairly new and everything was very clean. When I arrived I was told they didn’t have my booking, just book them quite some time to find it. The girls on the reception are really helpful but having no English it was all done through translate. It was a bit further out than I expected but close to bus and metro. Metro is out of the hotel turn left, go to the traffic lights turn left, keep walking the metro is in the right. About 15 minutes walk or the bus 739 from across the road...
