Average stay.
There's a guy who asks right away for money as a tip.
He brought the luggage to room and straight away asks for money.
Rooms are old and need renovation
Not provided with water and slippers after first day.
Only good thing was the breakfast and location.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The room was in good condition. However, Staff not very well prepared and hasn’t good manners.
They entered my room while I was in the shower. According to them, they had a problem in their system and my reservation disappeared after my check in. They never apologized, quite the opposite. The staff in charge was very rude to me when I asked the reason why they entered my room.
I don’t recommend it, considering there are several other options in the same area.
