Really the worst hotel experience I've ever had. Take a look at the photos. My colleagues had better rooms, but I cannot understand how this hotel is selling the room I occupied (123). It would be a better broom-cupboard, or tomb. It has decorative curtains across a brick wall, no opening window. There is a tiny skylight directly above the bed, with a rotted black-out covering, meaning you get direct blazing sun in your eyeballs at 05:43, if you're asleep, which you will not be. |The airconditioning has no power. In over 30C heat, no way to get air in the room, had to call maintenance, who gave me a taped-together stick to poke at the skylight on the ceiling and open it a crack. |Hotel is located at the train station, trains apply their brakes directly outside the room from about 04:30am. You might as well be sitting on the tracks enjoying that sound.|The room is dusty and badly maintained, anything on the floor or shelves is immediately covered in black dust (assume from the trains and the skylight). |The bathroom, where do I start. The shower is weak, takes minutes to heat up, and the drain isn't clear, meaning you are quickly up to your ankles in water. After your shower, in the middle of the night a mystery brown liquid will start loudly gurgling and bubbling up through the shower and sink drains. I never stepped in that shower again, used my workplace facilities. |I asked to change rooms 3 times during the week, and was told I would be contacted when one was available. I was never contacted.||The lighting in the corridors was intermittently not working, had to use phone light to get around, as again, no windows. Why does this hotel place solo female travelers at the furthest end of a creepy dark corridor, and place their male colleagues in a suite by the entrance? ||You're asked to pre-pay in full. No manned reception for check-out [I waited 30 mins]. The receptionist staff could not tell me how to buy a bus ticket "I've never used the bus in my life" I was told. The cleaning staff use the elevators to store laundry. A nice welcome beer was in my room on check-in. On day 2, it was gone. Staff must have taken it. ||What else can I say. Avoid.
