2/10 Terrible

Anon

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Bad choice. Don't stay here

False and hidden fees when checking in, run down location, no grocery store near by, willingly un helpful and clueless staff, dirty room, horrid beds (I think prison beds would most likely be better) Hidden binding conditions about refunds. extra charges on every thing imaginable and felt very unsafe from the moment I walked through the door I lost time, money, and almost my passport (they expect you to leave your passport with them as ransom for their key)

Overcrowded, smelly,bad showers football-hooligans

the place is full of sketchy people. the smell leaves something to be desired and the rooms are packed to the max. Don't stay here if unless you are a football hooligan.
