 Cons: The baths are shared. There is no soap in the baths. The rooms are small and dusty. The heating is turned off during the day and are turned on only at evening. There were no fresh linens in the room. The room was dark and did not get any sunshine. Check in time is after 3 PM. Usually check-ins are around 10-11 AM at other hotels. There is wireless in the hotel. However, it's not free. There is no office of management. So, if you want to leave your luggage at the hotel for a couple of hours after you check out, you need to use the lockers which cost 5 dollars per day. The worst is just coming nw.. Stay tight. I was bite by a bug in the mid of the night. I woke up with pain in my fingers. Although small it was poisonous. My finger got swollen and numb. That was scary. I would never ever stay here again.- 15-Jan-2007 It did not look like the hotel advertised on the wedsite.- 07-Jan-2007 Location and neighbourhood were very good, handy transportation, great take out food stores. Staff were helpful.
However owners and managment could put more effort into making the rooms a bit more friendly and comfortable, i.e. dresser, chair, more appropriate curtains, bedside table, with lamp, better tv reception. I found all this lacking and as a result I was disapointed.
Painting workmanships is terrrible, and doors are in terrible condition. Stairways are filthy. Bathrooms also left a bit to be desired.
It is obvious that owners are very stingy in spending money to upgrade the facility, and this is a shame given the hotel has a great location and the potential to improve on what could be a thriving business.- 11-Oct-2006 |
