Do not trust the photographs as this hotel definitely has not done upkeep in age's. To make matters worse, This hotel is in a very terrible area. It takes between 20 minutes and 2 hours to get a taxi anywhere. Yes… that big of a difference. The streets are horrible around this hotel and it is unimaginable hard to travel around. We were here for 5 days total and we did not enjoy our stay.
