We are having major electric shortage causing me and other guest not having access to electricity, air-conditioning and water for the last 5 hours... I definitely would demand a refund for all this inconvenience... We can't even use restroom for #1!!!!! That's absolutely unprofessional.

Not for everyone, but if you are lonely male it's ok. Downstairs there is a bar with hookers, but the food is rather bad. Breakfasts are like homemade and lack variety, but the staff is very friendly. At first I wanted to move when I saw the room, cause it doesn't look like in the photos, but everything was working including ac so in the end I'm satisfied. Very convenient location.

Please Don't Stay Here
I wasn't given the room I booked. The pictures on this app don't represent what they offer. Wi-Fi didn't work. The bar plays loud music at night. I was accused of having extra people in my room when I didn't. It seems that the bar is where men are trying to hook up with women for hire.

Can be good for the price
Before our trip we ordered middle class rooms. But we got little lesser rooms for the the first night and then upgrade to the best vip rooms for the rest of our stay. The location is good, televisions are not. Don't get the cheapest room option. Upper rooms are better. There is a bar downstairs and it can cause some noise in late evenings. The customers are mostly single men. Do your homework for less surprises.
