The hotel was fine for a 3 star hotel. The staff on the desk were very pleasant. The problem was that the rooms are not serviced. I requested mine was cleaned after 3 days but it was never done during the 6 days I was there. Other guests just got frustrated and piled their rubbish outside their room in the corridor for over 4 days.
