Air conditioning was broken, they wouldn’t move us to another room. We walked out. Staff was not helpful at all and didn’t care about the situation. Told us to “write the manager after we got home for a refund.” Unacceptable.

Il s’agit d’un hôtel 1 étoile qui aurait besoin de beaucoup plus d’amour et d’un bon nettoyage en profondeur. Si vous êtes vraiment serré financièrement, ça peut faire pour une nuit. Le quartier est sympathique par contre et très agréable marche jusqu’au centre-ville en 25 minutes.
