سيء لدرجة الاشمئزاز
Cons:

لا شيء في هذا النزل يستحق فلسا واحدا... لدرجة انني تركت المكان قبل ان استلم غرفة وقلت لهم ربنا يعوضني عن المبلغ الذي دفعته وغادرت المكان وانا مشمئز منه... وليس هذا فقط انما اهتزت ثقتي بتطبيقكم. لدرجة انني لن ادخل تطبيقكم ...

Cons:

Quando siamo arrivati gli hanno dato una camera senza bagno…Che gli avevo già pagato su booking una camera con bagno.Gli ho fatto vedere il pagamento e ho detto che era incluso il bagno.Ma hanno detto che forse era qualche problema nel sito di booking.com.Quindi ho pagato 70€ in più per avere una camera con bagno.

Great value for money. Cozy stay.
Pros:

Staff is very polite and helpful.

Cons:

Rooms could use slippers. Bath cabinet could be bit cleaner (was bit smelly to me). You will need to have ur own shampoo and conditioner. But for the money and compared to other residencies with same price range, this hotel is the best.

Place is not bad
Pros:

The location and the place was clean

Cons:

The room description was not enough to make me understand how small the room is and no windows or any way to have fresh air. The description should be in detail, and cristal clear.
