Pros:

L emplacement est dégueulasse trop de bruit un souk très sal

Cons:

Il y avait des chambres vides loin de bruit ils ont choisi dele donner une chambre qui donne sir le souk même la mauvaise odeur des sardine on la sentait de la chambre j ai pensé à une sous estimation
Lorsque j ai demandé de changer la chambre on l a fait difficilement, par contre cette chambre était et plus ou moins propre mais pas d eau chaude
En venant me plaindre de la femme de chambre qui se croyait patronne j ai subi toutes les injures possibles
Personnel très mal poli
Qui n écoute pas les clients
C Etait un trou a rats, très loin de la plage et de la place
Il ne mérite pas ce prix ni cette publicite
Je ne suis pas la seule à le dire plusieurs personnes se sont plainte
Parce j ai exprimé mon insatisfaction j étais insulté d une horrible facon
