Not recommended
Pros:

Location only.

Cons:

The whole hotel is in need of refurbishment. It looks very old, worn out and poorly maintained.

The single bed in my room was broken. Every time I tried to turn over, it made loud creaking noises and disturbed my sleep. The bed frame appeared to be damaged, causing the mattress to slope to one side.

The wardrobe was in poor condition, with loose doors and missing handles. Overall, the room felt neglected and was not comfortable to stay in.

I would not recommend this hotel in its current condition.

Pros:

Rien

Cons:

La chambre était dans un état déplorable. Le lit était inconfortable, pas d’air conditionné, aucune pression dans les douches communes. La propriété est vraiment un problème dans cet hôtel

Would never recommend this even if you’re desperate, it’s not worth it.
Pros:

That I got to leave when I wanted.

Cons:

Room was unbearably hot and they wouldn’t give me a fan as they said it was a safety concern. Couldn’t sleep at all and spent most of the time outside as I couldn’t take being in the room.
