Probably one of the worst rooms with safety hazards and a fraud. Staying away from this hotel chain in future. The description/pictures showed a two room apartment with a bathroom all on the same floor. The room allotted to us was crammed and not the same - had bathroom access on the room entry floor and a flight of stairs above to access room above and another flight of stairs to access 2nd sofa bed room below. It’s a safety hazard for families with 20-30kg suitcases. On asking hotel staff, room change was not done and staff insisted that this was mentioned. A scam for hotel in this price range.
