“Based on available information, the hotel appears to present significant concerns regarding cleanliness and maintenance, with reports of unsanitary conditions and broken amenities. There are also notable safety issues, including a lack of security and reports of disturbances, making it potentially unsuitable for families or those seeking a peaceful stay. My assessment suggests caution is warranted when considering this accommodation.”

the entrance felt quite unwelcoming, a group congregated there smoking. the overall cleanliness was a concern. the entrance area reeked, and the carpets looked unclean. our room was cramped and felt damp, with a strong smell of disinfectant. (it was clearly used to mask something worse.)
