Look elsewhere

The walls were extremely thin, we heard everything in the room next to us. The air conditioner barely worked, it had a strong smell of smoke in the room and the beds were not comfortable. The location didn’t seem too safe either. Staff was friendly.

This hotel was NOT at all as advertised in the pictures. The entire hotel, sheets, and room smelled of cigarette smoke despite being a non-smoking hotel with signs EVERYWHERE. The sink shot out everywhere and soaked the bathroom. The entire room was dirty in places. And the staff at the front desk had no idea what they were doing. Terrible.
