If I was Booking.com, I would remove this place because it makes them look bad giving this option.
Pros:

Nothing about this place is worth highlighting as good.

Cons:

It was an absolutely disgusting property. The pictures don't show the true condition of the place. The overall appearance was terrible from top to bottom. There were cockroaches everywhere in the room. Unless you are comfortable with bugs in your room, I would not recommend staying in this hotel, even if you are looking for a budget place to stay. There are better places that would be worth the few extra bucks.

Pros:

Hotel door not working & required to go around back. Old mattresses with black mould around the back. Poor customer service on arrival & throughout stay. Cockroaches in room & elevator. A bunch of dead cockroaches in the cupboard that were not cleaned up. I pressed the button to instruct “do not disturb” and my room was cleaned when I came back. Room was alright
