Reviews based on Location
The hotel is far away from the inner city. The rooms were okay but I’m used to supplies that are more modern. For me, personally there could have been more extras. You have to be careful because the stuff charges more for tourists. The buffet was nice. I give three stars which seems fair to me. The picture shows the view from my window which seems quite nice.
The hotel doesn't even deserve one star! It is a garbage where the rooms do not contain paper towels and there is no one to help you carry your luggage to the room, in addition to the reception staff who do not have any norms or respect towards the hotel guests. He talks to you with his eyes on hismobile phone and does not pay any attention to the customer! My advice is don't get to this miserable place. STAY AWAY!
