Located at a very good site but online pictures are deceiving. Not clean enough, pillows are unwashed, couch is super dirty, bathroom regrettable with old over used towels, no soap. With the prevalence of mosquitos in the area, one would at least expect mosquito nets but they use sprays which only last few hours before mosquitos invade again.

Dirty towels, dirty sheets, dorts pillows, dirty room, phone wasnt even plugged in and was disconnected. This room was an apparent upgrade as well ! Probably worth $5 a night only. Pictures make it look better than it is. If you check the reviews many are fake by someone called Paul. No normal neutral person would give this place full marks. Avoid ! Better to get a $10 a night place. At least you know what to expect

The bell given by Mo, the owner, was outstanding. He went out of his way to make everything smooth for us and nothing was too much trouble. The other staff were friendly and helpful. World definitely recommend

Misleading / False Advertising

Absolutely disappointing - the photos online DO NOT match the room (in fact, they may be stock photos or a different hotel). My room was old, run down, with an unclean couch, and dozens of mosquitos, as they enter through a window in the bathroom that cannot be closed (rusted and warped). The only thing good was the air conditioner. The bed was very hard, and the pillows and bedding were quite dirty. Overall, a poor stay, and sad that the hotel is using fake photos.
Definitely not the room pictured in the hotel listing - AVOID THIS PLACE.
