Look for alternatives!
Building is old. Room had a disinfectant smell. Probably, to mask moldy smell. No housekeeping. No safe to keep any valuables/ travel docs in the room. Breakfast was pretty basic. Air-conditioner in the room - so you keep hearing the constant hum and start/ stop of the AC. Pretty expensive for the kind of room and comfort it offered.
