My stay at the hotel was far from pleasant. The rooms were dirty and poorly maintained, which made me feel uncomfortable throughout my stay. The overall ambiance felt unsafe, and I encountered aggressive staff when I raised my concerns. It's clear that this place is in desperate need of serious improvements. It's just not worth the hassle, even for a budget option.

My stay at this hotel was unfortunate, as I encountered issues that made it far from enjoyable. While the location was convenient for accessing nearby areas, the cleanliness and upkeep of the facilities were severely lacking. I was quite disgusted by the state of the rooms and the overall atmosphere. If you value hygiene and safety, this place is not worth your time or money.

My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing. The room I booked was supposed to be an upgrade, but it felt far from that with stained sheets and an unpleasant smell lingering throughout. The only plus was the pool, which I didn't even get a chance to use. It's definitely not worth the money considering the state of the accommodations.
