Do not stay here. This was the grossest hotels I’ve stayed in. The room looked nothing like the photos and all the walls and surfaces were dirty. The bathroom was disgusting with a brown stained toilet and the whole room smelled like mold.

The room was super nice, as a solo traveller I really enjoyed it, however if you are staying with a friend or family instead of a partner it can be awkward as there is not a lot of bathroom privacy, however overall the hotel was super nice
