Avoid if you have other options :(
Pros:

The location is great and the staff was fantastic, very accommodating and professional.

Cons:

The property is very rundown. The quality of air in the rooms is unacceptably bad. I think it poses a health hazard. I’m not sure how this hotel is still operating considering the room condition.

Please next time dont give me the same room.
Pros:

I like the location of the hotel. It means strategic.

Cons:

At my first time staying there i can accept the fact that the hotel aircond unserviced. But i feel so bad the second i stay there they gave me the same room which is totally dissapointed me. I do record the conditioned of the aircond very dirty wuth dust and it prove that no service or maintenance plus the sound of the aircond disturb fantasticly louder then usual which may lead to disturbances for sleep. I do allergid to pollen and this is considered killing my mood and unhealthy. I do sneezing all night long and cant sleep until dawn that lead me to totally exhausted.
