Sabrina

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Upon my arrival, the receptionist, without offering any greeting, immediately asked if I spoke English — ironically while using a translator. The room was dirty, as shown in the attached photo. I requested a room change, but although the linens appeared clean, the room was dusty and the furniture was old, stained, and torn. The overall condition was far below expectations and certainly not worth the price I paid. During my six-day stay, I also had to personally request for the room to be cleaned. Even then, when I returned later in the afternoon, the cleaning had not yet been completed, and I was asked to wait. This level of service was highly disappointing.

値段の割に部屋が汚くて、自分で除菌シートであちこちふきました。 ソファーも古くて結構ぼろぼろでした! フェイスタオルは3枚!でも、かなり使い古してました。バスタオルはなぜか一枚しかなかったので、フロントに言って2枚もらいましたが何か不思議そうな顔をしていました。

Faune et flore

Horrible! Odeurs de cigarette dans la climatisation. Baignoire qui fuit et le personnel de l’hôtel ne semble pas intéressé quand on vient le dire et fait semblant de pas comprendre l’anglais. Moisissure dans la salle de bain Des asticots qui sortent d’en dessous la baignoire. Le ménage pas fait tous les jours. Je ne recommande pas du tout
