Pros:

It’s okay if the hotel is old and run-down, but this place was incredibly dirty. The entire room was moldy, even the kettle was filthy, making it unusable. The bathtub was broken and even had tape stuck inside. The floor, ceiling, and walls were all moldy. The toilet was filthy. There wasn‘t a single spot that was perfectly clean. We were staying on a high floor, and even opening the window could have been dangerous – you could fall out! Although I booked two nights and paid for two nights, I couldn’t stand it and decided to leave a day early. Even if I can‘t get a refund, I don’t want to stay another night. It was awful and disgusting. This kind of hotel shouldn‘t be operating because it affects the quality of life and safety of its guests.
