MARIA LOURDES

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
In terms of value for money at $175 per night compared to other studio motels we've stayed before at this price range, it's overpriced given its location (doesn't seem safe) and the poor quality of the room (doesn't smell nice and clean, it's dark, cheap curtain, and the floor area is too small for a studio).

Shopping expo.
