Having a night club right in front of the only window of your room is a bit silly. Super noisy. First with the music then with drunken customers. Probably good for party animals, but definitely the worst hotel for a family

Worse hotel ive ever stayed at. Wifi is broken and front desk has no answers, tv isnt functioning (no remote and no channels working), front desk isnt staffed (random people keep go behind the counter), stuff doesnt have answers to anything. No iron in the room, fridge had drinks left from other people. Incredibly noisy, music blasting outside, people yelling.
