Liked: Cleanliness
This place was really loud at night. Also there are no screens so there were bugs biting us that were coming in the open window that is was the only ventilation because there was no AC. The location was very central and great for walking and wandering the tourist shops and restaurants.

Daha önce defalarca kaldığım bir otel. Fiyatına göre yeterli ama bu sefer odada taharet musluğu ve klozet kapağı kırıktı. Yatak da nefes aldığında bile gıcırdıyordu. Bu sefer memnun kalmadım. Konumu çok iyi.
