We had a really unpleasant experience at this hotel, which made for a stressful stay. While the location next to the river is beautiful and the pool area is well-kept, our room was not clean, and we faced some serious issues with customer service. Overall, despite some positives, the cleanliness and service left much to be desired.

Our experience at this hotel was really disappointing. The room we booked was not clean at all, with dust and even mouse droppings noticeable upon closer inspection. The bathroom had a strong smell of urine, and we encountered cockroaches during our stay. On the upside, the staff was friendly and helpful, but the overall state of the hotel was frustrating, especially given the price we paid. We were kept awake by the noise from the nearby discoteca, which was quite unbearable at times.

My experience at this hotel was far from ideal. While the location was convenient, being close to several attractions, the rooms were in a sad condition and not very clean. Additionally, I encountered a situation at the bar that left a sour taste in my mouth, contributing to my overall dissatisfaction. The noise from the nearby discoteca was a significant drawback, making it hard to relax at night.
