The hotel is in an excellent location (near a subway station, the bus stop for the airport bus, a night market and numerous restaurants) but has been involved in a labor dispute for an extended period - there were often protesters at the entrance, sometimes playing loud music. Related to this, the hotel is a bit understaffed and it is beginning to show in the maintenance of the rooms.

Hotel to avoid

Bed was run down. Room slippers were recycled. Slippers were made from PU leather but it feels like 10 years old. The back of the bedroom slippers had dirt and dust. Most doors could not close fully with a few hinges coming off if you were to close it with just a little force. There was no sweeping of the room and you could see a layer of dust on the phone's screen after a night. The ceilings were moldy. The whole hotel was a basically a hotel from the 70s or 80s without any renovation or refurbishments. To make matters worse. They had a group of peaceful rioters camping in front of the main door. Singing, chanting and blasting very loud music from very early in the morning.

The hotel is centrally located, very clean and convenient to all the tourist spots. The location is very close to the station. I do not know the issues but I just wish that we were notified about the on going strike between the employees and the owners. I felt very uncomfortable and anxious coming and going through the picketers that I need to wear my mask, sunglasses and a hat in order to hide my face. Could you please note in your website about this strike so that we have a choice of other hotels. This was very inconvenient for us as a tourist to feel uncomfortable and uneasy crossing the picketers. It was a horrible feeling to do this.

An old and worn out hotel. There banner outside the hotel put up by their own employee claiming that they cant provide even basic services as it operate with only 1 employee during night shift. The carpet along the corridor are stained with badly worn out toilet door....therefore cold air can seep into the toilet. The only good thing is the room attendants are polite but i can see that she is very stretch (assuming lack of staff)
