i would not recommend this “hotel” i booked this place last minute and when i got there they told me i am not aloud to stay there as i have a minor with me even though online it has options which are adults and children, they said that i am aloud to stay but the child is not , this was nearlly 11 o’clock at night at this point ,they turned us away and did not accept a refund , the area is terrible when i was waiting outside after they told us we’re not aloud in a few people came out and told us that you shouldn’t have booked this place it’s a “crack den” ,i do not recommend this place and especially if you have children with you. awful experience
