Solo Traveller · Jun 2026

Awful experience: unsafe property

Disliked:Sex workers loudly servicing a client in the adjoining room, the entire floor smelled strongly of marijuana, and a loud dog was barking through the night. An unsafe property on multiple levels. Unbelievably bad for the price. The worst experience I’ve ever had and I’ve travelled extensively around the world. This property should be shut down.
