Konumu çok iyi. Fiyat/performans oranı normal, bu kadar az ödeme yaptığınız bir yerden çok fazla bir şey beklememeli
Pros:

Konumu çok iyi. Fiyat/performans oranı normal, bu kadar az ödeme yaptığınız bir yerden çok fazla bir şey beklememelisiniz. Check-in saatinden bir saat önce odaya giriş yapabildim.

Cons:

Oda temiz değildi, bardak konulan tabaklar toz içindeydi. Yatağın etrafında eskiden kalan bir kaç pislik gördüm. Benzer şekilde mikrodalga dolabında da parça parça pislikler yapışmış durumdaydı. Havlular aşırı lekeliydi bu nedenle asla kullanamadım.

Kedilerin odasıyla ve kum kabıyla acile ilgilenmeleri gerekli. Kedilerin odası çok ağır koku içinde, kuma girmek istemeyen kediler kumun dışına kakasını yapmış. Diğer kediler ona basmadan kuma girmeye çalışıyor. Gerçekten hayvansever birilerinin kedilerin malzemelerinin temizliği ile ilgilenmesi gerekli.
