7.8/10 Good! (779 reviews)
We stayed in the Annex which is the old section. The floor in our room was absolutely filthy. Threw away socks and put shoes on whenever we had to walk around. Non smoking but could smell smoke in the room from other guests. Air conditioner was very loud as unit was old.
However, bed was very comfortable.
Would I stay here again? Not too sure!
