My stay at this hotel was quite disappointing, primarily due to the undesirable location, which felt rundown and unsafe. While the rooms were generally clean and the AC worked great, the lack of hot water and uncomfortable bed were significant downsides. The included breakfast was basic and not very impressive. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this place unless you're on a very tight budget.

Not much to offer in terms of facilities; the gym was just a storage area and there were no additional amenities.

I had a pretty rough experience at this hotel. The rooms were fairly clean, and the air conditioning worked well, but the overall location was very undesirable. The staff was helpful, but the amenities were poorly advertised, and the breakfast was very limited. Given the state of the neighborhood and the lack of basic facilities, staying here just didn’t feel worth it.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the rooms were fairly clean, and the air conditioning worked well. However, the location was quite undesirable, and there were significant downsides such as no hot water and uncomfortable beds.

I stayed at this hotel hoping for a decent budget option, but I ended up disappointed. The location is quite sketchy, and although the rooms were relatively clean, the comfort and facilities did not match the price point. The breakfast was minimal, and the overall service felt unorganized. I think it's worth considering other options for a better experience.

This hotel has some redeeming qualities, like clean rooms and friendly staff, but its location is a major drawback, being in a run-down area with little access to amenities. The breakfast is extremely basic, and facilities are below average. Overall, it might be worth spending a bit more for a better experience elsewhere.
