Negative Reviews
negative:
Only for a quick stay
The hotel is only good for a quick stay and even offers hourly rates. The basic services and amenities aren't good enough for a longer holiday. There are no breakfast options and no leisure amenities, such as a pool or fitness room.
negative:
Room issues
The rooms aren't soundproofed and sound sleep will be hard to come by. Often, the rooms are lacking basics, such as toilet paper or toiletries. Many rooms have no windows.
negative:
A smelly situation
Most of the rooms have unpleasant smells to deal with that often linger in clothing and can follow you home. There is stale cigarette smoke in the rooms as they are not reserved for non-smokers. The rooms also have smells of mould and urine.
