Tired property with poor safety protocols
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Tired hotel with old rooms. My floor had a bbq smell from the restaurant down stairs. Apparently, this is permanent smell.
There was a fire incident 3 floor below, but no alarms sounded.. After a few mins, we had smoke in my room for next 30 mins. We had to sit inside through it.

Pros:

J'ai apprécié le rapport qualité prix. Le personnel m'a assisté durant tout mon séjour et je n'ai eu aucun soucis. la chambre était bien sauf qu'il n'y avait pas de prise de courant au niveau du chevet de lit

Cons:

je n'ai pas aimé la façon avec laquelle ils ont géré l'oublie de mon portable dans la navette qui m'a conduit à l'aéroport. Malgré le fait que je m'e sois très rapidement rendu compte de l'oublie, je n'ai pas eu la sensation qu'ils ont compris l'urgence de ma situation car quand je les ai appelé, le standardiste il m'a dit que la voiture se rendra à nouveau l'aéroport dans les 10 mn car ils ont un client à y acheminer alors que cela faisait deja 30 mn qu'ils avaient été informé de la situation et que je ne pouvais pas quitter le pays sans mon téléphone. Quand finalement ils me l'on remis on procédé à l'embarquement de mon vol
