One of the most disgusting places I’ve ever seen. Checked in and immediately checked out. Smelled like cigarettes, stains everywhere. Disgusting bathroom. Felt itchy as soon as I stepped in

The blanket was basically two sheets, there was a stain on the full wall-sized mirror that sat right next to the bed, there was a huge splatter stain on the ceiling, very noisy hallway until 3 in the morning

Liked: Cleanliness
The conditions of the place match the price of the accommodation. It was clean, but the room smelled heavily of cigarette smoke — way too much. I had to sleep the whole night with a T-shirt covering my nose and mouth because at times I couldn’t breathe well due to the smoke smell. // Las condiciones del lugar es acorde al precio del hospedaje, estaba limpio pero la habitación olía demasiado a humo de cigarrillo pero demasiado tuve que dormir toda la noche con un camiseta cubriendo mi nariz y mi boca porque en ocasiones no podia respirar muy bien.

Very noisy here. I think there is construction in the next room. Doesn’t feel clean. And the dead bolt was broken off.
