Ibis Budget cannot be considered a Hotel, awful.
Pros:

Nothing at all, except the staff, the staff at reception were great to be fair.

Cons:

The property should not be considered a Hotel, budget or not. The room was awful, dirty, noisy as it was facing a McDonald and the window wasn’t soundproof. It even leaked into the room overnight. We didn’t feel safe and slept nothing at all. There were a few people hanging around the entrance that looked like addicts/alcoholics. We booked for 3 nights, but left on the second day. Never again, and I’ve stayed at some dodgy places. An official complaint was made to Booking.com.
