Arnaque, horrible, à fuire, déception totale

Accueil horrible, aucune sympathie, pas de fenêtres dans la chambre!!! Réservation pas pris en compte donc on a du payer deux fois c'est une arnaque complète, sol salé, prise ne fonctionne pas, moustiquaire trouée de partout donc inutile, odeur bizarre humidité, petit déjeuner horrible, attendu 1h pour voir un responsable pour la réservation. À fuire!!!!

6/10 Good

Simple, nice and central hotel with new furnitures

Nice location, super central. Clean and comfortable room with private bath. Half guesthouse and hostel. Staff not particularly warm. It as a pity that the breakfast is not included in the price.
