Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The hotel is conveniently located, which is a definite advantage. However, there are some significant issues that need to be addressed. The room was very dusty, and even after housekeeping had serviced it, it was clear they hadn’t vacuumed properly, as I found piles of hair in the corners. Additionally, there were visible stains throughout the room, as well as in the corridors, reception area, and dining room, which detracted from the overall cleanliness and comfort. Most of the staff were pleasant and professional, but unfortunately, one receptionist with short hair was exceptionally rude and displayed an attitude that is unacceptable in the hospitality industry. I strongly recommend that management address her behavior to ensure guests are treated with respect and professionalism. With some improvements in cleanliness and staff training, this hotel could offer a much better experience.

Only thing I didnt like was how the Bathroom was made. I really feel like the shower could have been made better, than a door that lets water out onto the floor every time you get out of the shower. Also the fan didnt seem to work at all. Other than that was good stay.

Good position, but about the service room I’d like to tell that the rooms are not cleaned every day of the stay and the last day it was not even cleaned. Then little care in checking the change of glasses and cups.
