The location is terrible. From the window, you can see a cemetery. The rooms aren't clean. There are vermin, bed bugs. We were bitten all over by vermin, resulting in serious health problems (see photos). The staff is not customer-oriented. They didn't refund the full amount. Our vacation was completely ruined by this hotel. We're still traumatized by it.

Not bad.
Value for money, not bad. The staff was attentive. Hygiene could be a little better.

Fantastic Hotel ! First thoughts when you arrive at night time are not good, in fact we planned to go to another hotel the next day but the staff the room the breakfast convinced us to stay and we were right to make that decision, all the staff are fantastic, I’m sorry I forgot the names but the English speaking man , the night security and the kitchen lady were first class , location great to metro station , mosques and restaurants , thank you so much for your hospitality hopefully see you again 🙏🏻 10/10

A bit grungey. The place smelled. I asked the property if I had a smoking room and was shocked when they said ‘no smoking allowed’ because it smelled like smoke. Breakfast was ok. Price should be a little lower. The bed had some black hairs on it (I’m blonde).

Beware the restaurant. I had lunch without looking at the prices and ordered rice, a sausage, and beans and it cost me 150 Lyra. Usually this costs around 60 or 70.

a quality hotel

In addition, there was no towel in the room given to me, there was only a mattress on the bed, there was no pillow or quilt. It was already incredibly cold inside. Shampoo and shower gel were needed to take a shower. officially mediocre and disgraceful. I didn't know whether to feel sorry for being beaten or not to have the basic necessities that a person needs to stay comfortably. A hotel I will never pass by again!
