As someone who travels a lot, I can definitely say that this hotel doesn't qualify as a 4-star hotel. It's actually a 3-star hotel by all standards. The sink looks normal-sized in the photo, but in reality, it's so small that even a small person can't even wash their hands without splashing water all over themselves.
