The only thing that distracts me is their hard mattress and temporarily their hotel is under construction but was grateful that my allergic rhinitis haven't occur. Staying with our room was worth it since it was big and not...

Well, not much positive to say here. I wish I did not stay there. The overall hotel is run down, dirty and there is no English speaking staff.||In addition you have loud construction just nearby, they will work until late night (I am talking about 1am...)||Whoever stayed in the room before was smoking heavily, despite the no smoking policy.||||2 stars is quite generous. It is funny how hotels always look so shiny from the outside but as soon as you are inside, it is a big disappointment. Better spend some more and get into a...
