"I think many Americans would be horrified. The hotel is very clean, but is rundown and not really worth what Expedia charged. I bet it’s really half of that, greedy Expedia. The staff don’t speak English so get your translation app ready, although I told him I had a reservation, gave him my passport and he gave me a key. I liked the dog there, though.
Expedia maps were inaccurate and the direction kept flipping from one side of the street to the other and it wasn’t even on this street, it was a block away! I had to wander around a dark street at midnight because of this. Finally some man walked up to me asked me in English what I was looking for and showed me where it was. Passed two men throwing up while looking. It’s very dark at midnight and it looked sketchy. This next morning it looked simply not very clean outside, but lots of shoppers and families on the big street near the metro, so I felt it was safe.
Pros:
12 noon check out
Big tub, your own bathroom!
Big room
Amenity bag at check in
Hair dryer, cans of disinfectant, bar soap, etc for your use
Cons (in addition to above):
Hard bed
Couldn’t get AC to work
Right next to building when you open window (but you can open the window)"
