Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: - Central location - Spacious room, although it felt empty - Breakfast, although some basic items were missing - Mosquito net provided on request, although it should have been available from the start
Negative: - Very noisy, mostly because of the staff themselves: the guy at the reception desk (squeezed in the staircase) watching videos loudly late at night, the reception phone ringing in the middle of the night and resonating throughout the building, cleaning staff talking/working loudly before 7am... - Dirty floor that clearly hadn't been washed in a long time, it seemed to be swept at best (we didn’t hear a vacuum being used once during our entire 3-day stay) - Big bathroom but tiny basin - Very dark room - No alcohol served, even at the bar
