I am disappointed because I mistakenly booked my room on the wrong month so when I arrived I had to pay for another room, thats fine, my mistake. But… they would not refund my money from the original booking, even though they had a whole month to get the room rebooked.

Fine for one night of jet lagged sleep, but I wouldn’t stay for longer. The bathroom had a very strong stench of stale urine in it, which was very unpleasant. The room itself was clean and had everything I needed. The restaurant was a pretty bleak place, and the food wasn’t good. However, the free shuttle to/from the airport and proximity to the airport was my main reason for booking, and you pay for what you get!

I wouldn’t recommend this place to a friend or family member. It does lack simple elements like a directory, I tried to reach the front desk using any combination of numbers and characters, no luck. There were two big flies we couldn’t get rid of. We managed to dispose of the roach “we saw”. The carpet was torn out at several places and its cleanliness suspect. There is black mould around the shower. The wall’s paint is damaged and stained at different locations. In summary, it’s cheap and convenient to the airport but it leaves a lot to be desired. IMHO

Housekeeping was abysmal - no one took any responsibility. Housekeeping was not done everyday inspite of calling the reception. Cockroaches in the room. Stains on the bed linen. Not at all kid friendly. Not worth the money. Stayed for a week and was not getting any response even for basic amenities.
