Katie Mira
Everything about my stay was great except for one experience at the reception. When I asked the receptionist to help me book a taxi to the airport for the next morning (at 4:30 AM), her attitude was unpleasant and unhelpful. She repeatedly said they couldn't be sure about arranging a taxi at that hour, which made me quite stressed, as I had no other way to get to the airport (I had a smilier exper...

The rooms are clean and a good size, but there is no a/c or even a fan in the room, so it gets really hot at night. The loud road noise makes it undesirable to leave the window open.

The room did not come with bottled water and I ...
