I booked this hotel for four nights but ended up leaving after just one due to numerous issues with the room's condition. While the size of the room was adequate, it was in a shocking state of disrepair, which ruined my experience. Additionally, the staff's lack of concern for the problems I raised left me feeling frustrated.

The room was of adequate size, but it was in a bad state of disrepair. The balcony door didn’t lock, and there was a rusty nail on the floor, which was dangerous. Additionally, there was a major hole in the floor that was only hidden by a carpet runner.

The bathroom was poorly maintained with no hot water and leaks everywhere.

I booked this hotel for four nights but ended up only staying for one due to significant issues. The room had multiple safety and maintenance problems, including a dangerous nail on the floor and a leaking bathroom, which was really disappointing. While the staff did offer to move us to another room, their lack of concern for our complaints left a lot to be desired, and I felt we didn't receive fair treatment regarding the airport transfer cost when we checked out early.

I was really let down by my stay. The initial room I had was in poor condition, with serious maintenance issues that made it feel unsafe. When I tried to bring these concerns to the attention of the staff, they didn't seem to care at all, which added to my frustration. After just one night, I decided to leave despite having booked for four nights, and I felt the manager should have done more to accommodate us during that difficult situation.

While I was grateful they offered a different room after I expressed my concerns, I didn't feel reassured that it would be any better.

We were really let down by our stay here. While the room was of decent size, the state of disrepair was shocking. The major issues included a balcony door that didn't lock, dangerous floor conditions, and persistent plumbing problems. When we raised concerns, the staff seemed indifferent and unhelpful. We had to cut our stay short after just one night, and negotiating about the airport transfer was frustrating.

I booked this hotel expecting a nice stay based on recommendations, but I was left very disappointed. While the size of the room was okay, it was in terrible shape with multiple safety hazards. The service was lacking, and we ultimately left after just one night. It's frustrating since we had planned to stay for four nights, but the condition of the room and the attitude of the staff made it impossible to continue. I do feel like we should have been compensated in some way, especially considering the issues we faced.
