shocking
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

This hotel should be a 2 star. It is very run down and right beside a chinese restaurant which has a very noisy fan which goes on until 11.30 at night . The noise was so bad that i asked to change rooms and ended up having to check out and find different accommodation. It had no fans available despite the heat and the actual rooms themselves are very small. All in all a terrible experience.
