Room clean , good breakfast , ok location close to downtown but if you are coming from the train station one stree is a whole different world , too dirty unsafe full of homeless makes u feel in the worts getto, when I asked for directions to the hotel all they said was take the train to the station and we are close to it , ( not all tourist have phone service at that country , at every property I va stayed they provide a detailed and easy orientation for arrival , so we got lost for ten minutes turning and turning and turning all around the station on that terrible area just because it was hard to provide a simple instruction of “ take this exit of the train , walk one block to your right another block to specific street and u ll find it on the left ) as simple and as close as that we got really lost trying to look for it at a very unsafe area , on the other hand it was terribly noisy on the stree ambulances , fire trucks motorcycles buses people meeting outside locals all very very noisy ….

A Room with no Space.
Let me put it like this. If you had been camping in a two-man tent, and came into this hotel room. It's as spacious as. Otherwise it is so tiny and pokey. Just no room to move around much. I was by myself, if you had a partner, no way could do it. If you are a larger person, you would have major difficulty using the toilet and the shower. There are no tea/coffee making facilities, plastic cups. As I am a back packer type of traveller, and only use the room to store my things and have sleep and shower, it was fine. One the plus side, the front desk staff are courteous and friendly and helpful, cannot be faulted. The breakfast is ok, overpriced for what ya have, but the food is healthy.

The hotel is located in the city centre very near to shops and main underground station which was brilliant. Unfortunately, the room was very basic, no air con, window which backed onto a concrete area which also faced another room which felt over looked so as to have the curtains closed and the hotel guest were VERY noisy and didn’t care for others. Won’t stop there again for that reason but the staff were very friendly.

Location is excellent, good for a quick stay. Walls are thin as paper, heard every conversation from room next door, or when people walk around in the hallways. Room amenities are very basic, but that is expected for the price.

Goed hotel maar niet donker op kamer
Prima hotel met goede locatie. Prettige kleine kamers en heerlijk bed. Ik had alleen heel veel moeite met het gordijn wat de kort was. 10 cm te kort en zeer veel licht in kamer door straatlantaarn en verlicht bord van het hotel (1e verdieping). Kamer moet gewoon donker zijn!
