This place is old and outdated. Bring your in house slippers, carpet is very old and stained. Clean in the sense that no roaches or other insects. Bathroom was updated with newer tiles but There are still some mold around the sink area.. don’t understand why they don’t remove it.

Room good, but too many problems
The room itself was fine. Large, and with views over the city. But ... The shower was only lukewarm. The TV had only 5 channels, none were English language. The fridge was wired into the same circuit as the lights, so it turned off when I removed the key to leave the room. When I returned at the end of the day, all the stuff in the fridge was warm, and also sitting in a pool of water because the icebox had defrosted. The aircon turned itself off every few hours for no apparent reason, requiring a manual reset.
