Negative Reviews

negative:

No Elevator in Building with Stairs

Some guests did not enjoy and firstly noticed the hotel does not have an elevator and for those who had heavy luggage, it was a big surprise. People who truly need an elevator are advised not to book the place.

negative:

Unclean & Unattractive Place to Stay in

Many guests complained the hotel was one of the worst they have stayed in. The constant smell coming from the place was too much for some, the sheets were not clean, facilities like A/C and TV did not work, and the bathrooms were too unclean to bear.

negative:

Bed Bug Warning

Some guests experienced bed bugs and roaches during their stay in the dormitory-style hotel which they found shocking and disappointing. The overall atmosphere did not help the situation given it was not the cleanest of places.
