Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The room was in good condition. However, Staff not very well prepared and hasn’t good manners.
They entered my room while I was in the shower. According to them, they had a problem in their system and my reservation disappeared after my check in. They never apologized, quite the opposite. The staff in charge was very rude to me when I asked the reason why they entered my room.
I don’t recommend it, considering there are several other options in the same area.
