Rooms

The furniture, including beds and mattresses, is notably worn or broken, affecting sleep quality. Maintenance issues are prevalent, with malfunctioning electrical sockets and bathrooms lacking adequate ventilation and privacy features. Bedding in the rooms is dark, which some guests find less reassuring in terms of cleanliness. Additionally, insects have been spotted, contributing to the overall unfavorable experience for visitors. Although guests appreciated the convenient location, the condition of the rooms overshadows the positives, necessitating significant improvements to meet expected standards.
