The place feels like a hostel. Everything is dated and not nearly as nice as they make it look in the pictures. First night had no hot water to shower but it was fixed next day. Very noisy at night even on higher floors. Bed is also not very comfy, old spring mattress is very bouncy and rough. Don't come here with high expectations.... It's okay if you're on a tight budget and need a place to crash

Property says free WiFi but no one shared the password at check in, after I went to get it myself there was no WiFi for almost 2 full days. If you’re going for work, it’s impossible to get any work done. Bathroom drain backed up making a pool out of the shower.

The hotel room was spacious and bright and in a great location. The room was clean, however the beds were not the most comfortable and there were no hand towels. When we asked for a hand towel we were given a tub mat. The breakfast was ok but one morning we arrived at 9am (breakfast was to be till 9:30) and we were told there was no more fruit or juice. When we suggested substitutes for other items on the menu we were told it would be an extra charge. We had requested an early check in prior to arrival and were never told about the extra charge. It was also very difficult to communicate with the reception staff who spoke no English at all. This property was listed as a VIP access so it was quite disappointing when it did not meet expectations.
