Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Not like pictures advertized at all.
DO NOT go by the pictures they have on Hotel's.com. We thought we were getting a room with a balcony only to get a room with NO window. They say they only have one room like advertised and it is always booked. Definitely very false advertising. This place is only good for a young backpacker who doesn't care about the type of room.
