Cons:

- no elevator so you have to climb all the stairs with your luggage
- everything smelled awful and sheets were full of stains
- found a cockroach strolling around my bed side table
- they don't even have regular water in bathroom, the water was from the sea (salty and awful) impossible to take a bath!
- towels smelled too much, too late for me- I realized after usage and got face full of pimples the next day

Cons:

Dificultăți cu apa: pe timpul zilei nu era apă caldă sau era foarte puțină. În cameră se simțea un miros straniu. Prosoapele erau murdare, la fel și lenjeria de pat.
De asemenea, pentru cei care doresc să folosească serviciul de spălătorie, recomand să îl evitați – este prea scump.

My stay was very pleasant and I was able to achieve what I wanted to do. Perfect hotel choice made.
Pros:

Seamless check in and proximity to the places I wanted to visit before connecting to my flight the next day. The aireconditioning was perfect! Clean room too.

Cons:

The breakfast should have options for English breakfast. It is largely tailored on local food offerings which to some of us are not fond of.
