Travelled from Canada June2025! Excellent Choice

Reception staff are very nice, kind, kmowledgeable, informative, quick to respond and respectful. We arrive too early and they accomodated us even it is not time to check in when they saw us too tired from our trip. Room is very clean and sorroundings although it is outdated, everything you need is there esp it is close to everything like metro, restaurants, banks, groceries & more. Overall excellent and saved some money. Excellent for the price.

As soon as I entered the room I could smell a faint musky odor like wet smoke, the carpet was horribly stained, the closet door knob came off in my hand, the toilet lid was loose and kept sliding around, the room needed painting as the paint was faded, the bathroom sink faucet was loose and flopped around when you tried to use it and the shower was tiny and leaked all over the floor when you took a shower. I complained to the check -in person and told me the carpets were clean just discolored and I should buy a throw rug from a market up the street to cover it up. I aked for another room and he told me they didnt have any and the room was still usable. Being exhausted from the long flight I stayed that night and the next day I made a reservation for another place and left the day after. Worst hotel I have ever stayed at!

The Semeli was what we needed since it had a 24 hour desk. The staff was very good at answering questions and helping with transportation. The hotel is much nicer than the street it is on which is cluttered with dysfunctional scooters. Despite the appearance, there is a police station across the street so it is safe. The room was nice and you have maid service every day. The only disappointment at the Semeli was that the mattress was uncomfortable.

Hard to get into the parking lot as there was a police blockade on the street, but I assume this is not a permanent occurrence. The first set of bedsheets had a slight smell of smoke, even though we were in a non-smoking room. This was fixed for the second night when they changed the sheets. Overall the hotel is decent, considering that it is quite cheap.

I did not have a good experience at all. I booked 6 nights and only stayed 1 because of how bad my room was. It was dirty and smelled of smoke, even though it was supposed to be no smoking. There were stains everywhere, the A/C was blocked by broken blinds so it wasn’t really working, and overall did not match was the booking pictures describe. I was offered no change of room, and when I complained with pictures, they just brushed me off. No partial refund/compensation or accommodation of any kind.
