Do NOT stay here (Feb 2025), read all the recent reviews there are known issues and problems. Find a different place to stay.
Do you want to wake up with a bedbug crawling on your bed? I didn't think so.
There are also cockroaches, baby ones.
I had to be changed room twice, for a three night stay. So disgusted I had to leave after the second night and get another hotel, so double the cost for that night.
I only stayed here because of friends staying here and planned a tour, so it seemed convenient.
-Local people recommend it, probably because of the hotel's former glory, it has marble floors after all...
Advertises as 4 star hotel, should be 0 star.
CONS:
-Very busy, loud street, with lots of vagrant people right outside, it smells of urine and if you want ot go anywhere walking, you will have to zig zag around them. There are free meals for them close to the side of the property.
-No restaurants or attractions within walking distance without walking through dark, smelly sidewalks.
-Hotel was build in the 1940s, seems very little work since then.
-Check in: short tempered receptionist saying loudly "sign here", without giving you time to read.
-Massive cell phone tower next to hotel (south).
-Lots of moskitoes inside the hotel, and in the rooms.
-Only one card key per room, two people? you will have to synchronize your timings.
-Rooms dated. Minor renovations.
-Mold, cockroaches, bedbugs, moskitoes.
-Bathroom disgususting
-Carpets filthy.
GOOD:
Hot water, water pressure.
