7.6/10 Good! (6,733 reviews)
During my stay, we wanted to try and make some coffee in the room using the coffee maker machine. But the cord was only 30 cm( less than one foot) long! It was on the drawers and unplugged and there was no outlet close enough to plug that oddly short cord into! I don’t even know why they put the coffee maker there if you can’t even plug it. So we started looking behind the drawer to find an outlet and my boyfriend found a men’s underwear behind the drawer! That was unbelievably disgusting. Looks like someone was lazy to clean the room and they just hid the trash behind the drawers. We got suspicious and started looking behind all drawers in our room and well we found more trash. We decided not to look under the bed for our own’s sake. The hotel’s location is convenient for sure but I’d recommend that you try someplace else, we are not coming back either.

8.6/10 Excellent! (2,193 reviews)
Rooms are outdated - sheets had a tear in it and chair “leather” was rubbing off. Also no shampoo or shower gel in those containers in the shower - and it’s too late to find that out when you are already in the shower. Disappointed for the price!!
