I was given the first floor which was very noisy because of its indoor night club. The internet service was also bad.

A hotel to avoid for business travelers

It is a run-down hotel with a moldy bathroom, cobwebs behind the bathroom doors, and a chaotic breakfast area. The reception service was ok but not professional. Check-in was delayed by 30 min as the room was not ready. I will not recommend this place to any business traveler.

The worst hotel ever I've been to really bad service couldn't sleep at night because of the high noise level from the pub and they threw things on the floor and slammed doors so you wake up so they can clean the room faster and the couples can't book anyone taxi to you you would walk on the street and wait for someone like a taxi that drives by dirty in the shower old furniture from the 60s bathtub was so old so this was a hole in the dan really disgusting feeling do not recommend at all you will regret it I promise

Struttura datata, pulizia molto scarsa, hotel molto rumoroso, abbiamo dovuto far cambiare le lenzuola, le federe dei cuscini e gli asciugamani, anche il ricambio non era pulito. Abbiamo dovuto richiedere diverse volte il cambio prima di averlo. Isolamento acustico pessimo. Da evitare assolutamente

4* stars equivalent stay, was a good one.

Price was good, team was amazing, hotel was clean, swimming pool and Gym were both clean and good.. Gym was quite big compared to 3 and 4 stars hotels. I would definitely stay there again if I have a chance. One comment is only room size is average size.

La struttura non era male ma poca pulizia. Prevalentemente indiani infatti la colazione era quasi tutta composta da piatti indiani. Caffè solo solubile. Discoteca a tutto volume fino al mattino e musica la mattina alle sette. Non adatto a turisti europei

Points positifs: Gentils fonctionnaires, prix restaurant et bar correct.. Points négatifs: Nous avons dû payer beaucoup de frais "extra" qui n'étaient pas inclus dans la réservation, beaucoup de bruit de musique la nuit parce qu'il y a plusieurs "discothèques" au rez-de-chaussée et une salle des fêtes au 5ème étage, espace piscine en rénovation, loin des transports en commun et franchement un peu loin du centre ville.. Je vous conseille de réserver un hôtel dans le quartier de la marina, car c'est là que tout se passe.

Price is not everything sometimes

The hotel is not in a very convenient location. Very hard to get a taxi. Most cabs dont know how to find the place or never heard of it. Hotel is very basic with not a lot going on. It's just cheap and that's why I chose it. In hindsight spending an extra 20$ for a better place would have been well worth it

The noise at this hotel was unbearable! The Bollywood bar had ridiculously loud music playing half the night, so it was impossible to sleep. There were also doors banging all night and people shouting in the corridors. Mattress and pillows hard and uncomfortable. No kettle in the room. Staff, however, were very kind and helpful.
