Not worth the money
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

Very disappointed with the hotel bed. The mattress was extremely uncomfortable and felt worn out, making it almost impossible to get a good night’s sleep. I expected much better quality for the price. Unfortunately, the poor bed completely affected my stay.

Okay for a cheap short stay.
Pros:

The location was great, the view was amazing, the bed was comfy.

Cons:

Single glazed windows that were rotting,which meant there was a gap and we heard everyone and everything, only one window opened, no fan or air conditioning, the room reached 26°, seals around the shower were yellow, the shower head had very little water preasure, there was dust on furniture and the headboard.
