Old but good deal
Ok for the price. Not as bad as all the reviews from december to january say. I was two years ago in the Hotel and we loved it. This time i was surprised how much all the facilities were used down. Especially the pool area isn t the Same anymore. Loose parts and the pool pillows look old.
The rooms are very big, clean and the bed very comfy. So if u put it in Relation that one night costs only 50usd then is the Hotel absolutely fine. And the lady at the reception is very friendly and helpful.

Hotel needs improvements.
We stayed for over a week. First room given was horrible and too noisy. After changing it was better. Breakfast very simple and with no variety. Last 2 days the drain in the bathroom was very stinky. Poor maintenance as the shower leaked every time we used it. For sure not coming back.

Ramses at the front desk was extra friendly, and very accommodating. Most of the staff was also nice. One security guard at the door was obnoxious and very unfriendly and unaccommodating.
