    “Although maybe a little dated, the rooms are comfy and spacious. For the price it is good value. The Irish pub in the hotel is very pleasant and the happy hour prices are very good by local standards.”

    “Location is great however the hotel not so much. We had 2 rooms and one of them had cockroaches, also the pool pictures are misleading as around the pool is also the terrace and is kind of strange to use the sunbed with people around sitting on the terrace . Stuff is nice and helpful. ”

  • Excellent service old hotel.

    “I was skeptical at first as some negative reviews said this is not a good place. It is not very new furnished hotel, however it is still great for the price you pay compared to others. The staff is really good and service quality for that price is perfect!”

    “The location is good for me, but the lobby A/C was broken and the temp is 35 Celsius, I asked for an iron to my room it arrived after I called again 2 hours latter and it was broken! I asked them again to replace it! The door key had to be reprogrammed everyday! The room was not cleaned and exchanged dirty towels or made the bed when I called they asked if I wanted them to do it?! I sail yes I had the sign on the door since the morning, when the house keeping arrived they told me the sign said don’t disturb which is not true!!!”
