They first gave me a dirty room after 2 hours wait before check in .. and then changed my room with complementary card of 3 free drinks at the bar which is end of not working at the time I was trying to use it .. I was charged a 100 euros for a roof top dinner at check out after I was told no bill need to be paid that night !! The place is a scam ..

Room didn’t get cleaned during the day, we have to check out early we were lucky to find some other hotel but since was last minute had to pay much more. We never come back there

Travelled with family
Disliked: Staff & service
I stayed for several consecutive nights, but the quality of service from the staff needs improvement. I understand that this place faces water scarcity, so to take a bath, I needed to request a bathtub plugger from the front desk. However, despite asking for it every day for three days in a row, I never received one. Additionally, the water in the room was supposed to be replenished daily, but on the second night, I had to call and remind them to provide fresh water. Besides, the hotel next door plays electronic music on the rooftop during weekends, lasting until around 11 or 12 at night. For those who are used to sleeping early, it’s practically impossible to fall asleep.
