It amazes me the varying reviews on this hotel. My husband and I are on the " we'll never stay here again" side of things. From the sound of some of the review - there are obviously many different types of rooms you can stay in, and maybe that makes a difference. If this place really wants to become a hotel, though, then it needs to refurbish the rooms and make them more uniform.
What we got was a room not much bigger than a dorm room. Stark white walls, no artwork at all, no mirror or sink in the room. Even if it was clean, it just FELT dirty. Pillows that were the thinnest, barest pillows.
And the shared bathrooms... oi. I will say - never really had to wait. BUT- we had to carry our own toilet paper! They supplied it for us, but in our room. We had to take it w/ us when going to use the bathrooms.
And the one shower on our hall- no where to hang my stuff. Luckily, I took very little w/ me and was able to precariously hang my bag and towel so that they weren't on the floor- because when I showered, it didn't DRAIN! By the end, I was standing in an inch of water. Trying to dry off and get dressed while standing IN water was quite a test of my balance. And patience.
It was also quite hot while we were there- and there is no central air and the bathrooms are not air conditioned either. Very uncomfortable.
We've learned our lesson and will be sure to always book earlier so that we don't get stuck at this hotel. I'll gladly pay more for a room elsewhere.
