THE WORST hotel you can stay at. The only reason I’ve given it a 1 is because there’s no way to give it the -1 it truly deserves. A summary of the bullshit we had to survive: 1. You have to take your own luggage from the entrance to your room. There’s no such thing as service. 2. The room is poorly maintained, smells terrible. Some of the bathrooms smell like you’ve gone for a swim to the drain. 3. The water tastes SALTY! 4. The bathroom has no lock 5. The AC doesn’t work. At 10:30, we had to change the room because the AC stopped working 6. The room is filled with mosquitoes 7. The toilet shower jet has no water. 8. Our room didn’t have a key so we needed the staff to accompany us to the room when we wanted to enter it. If you have no other option for a hotel, please stay in your car. Hopefully the hotel will shut down soon for the greater good of mankind.

Once a celebrated five star hotel is now cannot even described as a fully fictional budget hotel. Rooms are old and look ignored maintenance for a long time. Staff is good but totally unmotivated. Bed sheets and towels are at least a decade old. Toilet is no where close to a star rated hotel. Toilet seat was so tall the a normal person has to climb on it. Water from the sink was salty. Shower head was full of rust and leakage all around. Such a beautiful building it would be once upon a time but today it’s just a ruin from the past. Restaurant is basic but food was okay. Please avoid if you’re booking this hotel with your own money.
