Terrible room condition. no aircond and the provided fan was fallen apart. Rang the front desk was told the room booked was a cheaper room so nothing they can do. the front desk - Frances was rude and had bad attitude and the manager that night Omkar Khot was quite indifferent and simply offered to change us to the 2 room down the hall. There was a CROCOROACH in the bathroom! photo provided. overall, this is the worst experience through WOTIF booking.
