Don't stay here
Pros:

The staff were friendly

Cons:

Arrival, security tried to charge us to park.
Room was advertised with air-conditioning and mosquito net, his was not true.
Room we book, they gave us on ground floor right next to kitchen and car park, Room smelt of burnt food and car fumes.
We asked to move but only had a small room available, no refund or compensation offered.
Couldn't sleep due to loud music from next door, hotel security did nothing about this.
Asked for fan as no air-conditioning in room, here was no fans available.
We asked for water to ty help keep us cool, we were told we had to buy it from bar.
Bathroom had mold around ceiling.
Windows didn't close fully so mosquitos in room.
Overall the experience was poor and we would not recommend it.
