The hotel felt like stepping into a dimly lit Twilight Zone episode. It was late and check in at the bar felt...offbeat, to say the least. But hey, I was tired and ready for some rest. Unfortunately, what awaited me upstairs was anything but restful.
The room? Tiny. Think shoebox with a bed crammed in. And the lack of windows? Claustrophobic doesn't even begin to describe it. But the worst part? The air. Imagine a thick cloud of stale cigarette smoke infused with dust mites doing the can-can. My allergies went nuclear, and sleep became a distant dream. Every cough and shuffle from the paper thin walls became my unwelcome lullaby.
Morning brought bleary eyes and a burning desire to escape.
Thankfully, the manager acknowledged the subpar experience and offered a partial refund, which I graciously accepted. However, a word of caution for future travelers: this is a shared bathroom hotel. Privacy is definitely not on the menu here.
Positives: Partial refund offered by the manager.
Negatives: Tiny, windowless room, cigarette smoke smell, dust mites, shared bathrooms, noisy walls.
Verdict: Avoid unless shared bathrooms and claustrophobic conditions are your jam.
