No one spoke any English, the wifi was good and got hot water after awhile. The area had no restaurants close by and you could hear peoples conversations during the night at times. Not bad overall, clean and safe but wouldn’t stay again

Horrible experience

Worse hotel ever, we had to leave the hotel after 2 nights staying there, when we book 4 nights. Was to noisy, beds very uncomfortable, you had to leave your key on the lobby thing that I didn't do because they had a sign saying that the hotel is not responsible for any missing items or stolen. But the main reason that we leave after staying the second night was because random people were walking around the hotel and stopped outside our room and stay there for no reason. They turn on and off the lights during the night constantly we didn't feel safe during our stay.
