Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests had mixed experiences at this hotel. While many appreciated the affordable price and some noted the quiet setting and clean rooms, the service received significant complaints, with some describing the staff as rude and incompetent. Cleanliness was mentioned as a concern by a few, and although some liked the large showers, the breakfast options were largely criticized for being limited. Overall, the hotel offers decent value for money, but improvements in service and amenities would greatly enhance guest satisfaction.AI-generated from customer reviews

And told me that I could find another hotel. Are you aware that is a c...
