Basic accommodation for a night
Pros:

The location was convenient to points of interest

Cons:

Very small room, no windows, the air conditioning was so loud I had to wear ear plugs to sleep, the toilet didn’t flush. The accommodation is very basic and ok for a night but would not want to stay for any longer

Good value for money in terms of location but the place is quite outdated and a lot more run down than the photos.
Pros:

The location is super central and the staff were very helpful with everything I needed.

Cons:

The property is alot more run down than in the photos. My air con unit made an insanely loud noise which made it hard to sleep and the bathroom was very water damaged.
