Staff is not very friendly. Rooms don't even smell clean and if you walk without shoes, your feet get black from the dirt!!!!!!!! We checked out a day early, and even chose to lose our money instead of staying there one more night.

The hotel is good and I really liked it.

This hotel is well located near the city center and close to restaurants and malls, shops and pharmacies. Upon my arrival, I was embarrassed because, despite having made the reservation and paid 24 hours in advance, my reservation and payment were not in the bank system. I had been asked to pay to guarantee the stay. However, the next morning it was already in the system and I was refunded the amount paid the day before, and the manager apologized for the inconvenience.

Great staff at the Road Lodge!

The reception staff were always helpful and friendly adding to a very pleasant stay. The room was always clean and tidy when we returned after our days out. The TV did not work, but it was not a big problem - we did not mention it to the staff while we were there. I would have liked nicer/more coffee in the room, the coffee machine in the dining area did not always dispense coffee that was strong enough. The staff tried to resolve the issue, but I think the problem is the machine in humid conditions.
