“From what I've gathered, a stay here could be a gamble. Reports of malfunctioning air conditioning and unresponsive staff paint a concerning picture. The practice of retaining room keys raises security questions, and claims of bedbug infestations are particularly troubling.”

cool temperature super clean shower prompt service

The air conditioning was effective. It kept the room at a consistently cool temperature! the shower was super clean upon my arrival, the water pressure was just right, and i found the temperature control easy to manage. the hotel arranged a taxi for me, and the service was prompt. I really valued this.

The walls felt quite thin. I could hear my neighbors occasionally.

mixed experience at best

sticky residue sputtering air conditioning

i found the cleanliness lacking , to put it mildly. the bathroom floor had a suspicious sticky residue , and the shower drain seemed perpetually clogged with someone else's hair. also , the air conditioning unit sputtered and wheezed all night , but barely cooled the room at all , i struggled to get any sleep.
