Cons:

⚠️ Extremely disturbing and unsafe experience.

In my personal experience, the behavior of some staff at this hotel was completely unacceptable. I witnessed behavior that made women feel unsafe and uncomfortable, including inappropriate and unwanted physical approaches toward a female guest.

The hotel environment was also extremely dirty and poorly maintained. I also witnessed staff allegedly consuming shisha and marijuana at the reception during the night, which was completely unprofessional and unacceptable.

I strongly recommend that women and families think twice before staying at this hotel. The management seriously needs to investigate the behavior of its staff and take immediate action to ensure the safety of its guests.

Хорошее расположение. На ресепшен девушка очень хорошая, помогала с решением вопросов.

Cons:

Дверь в душ не закрывалась, так же вода текла на пол из душевой кабинки. Старое напольное покрытие, в некоторых местах порванная. И ночью было шумно.
