Shit Place
Cons:

This hotel is the worst hotel i have ever stayed in my life. This hotel is just a trash.we stated 4 nights there through booking.com.At first they gave us a room in which no push shower was attached in toilet for use. They then changed that room after complaining that matter. We got another room which was full of bugs. We couldn’t sleep a night in that hotel. Because of booking.com policy, we couldn’t cancel that shitty hotel. They didn’t provide any toiletries, tissues,shampoo nothing. Only two sopa was given. Don't you ever try this shittiest hotel.This hotel is a total scam

Only location. Property could be cleaned
Pros:

Only location
The staff are courteous. But really they need to keep the hotel clean. Plus the washrooms can use new fixtures

Cons:

It’s not clean & no heating except you are provided with an electric blanket which is useful when you sleep. No clean Linen either.
Plus the washrooms can use new fixtures
