What recent reviews say
Half the reviews praise comfort and value, but the other half report filthy rooms, stained sheets, and strong odors. Cleanliness varies wildly between bookings, and staff are absent: you unlock everything yourself via keypad. Best for solo travelers on tight budgets who can live with minimal service; risky for anyone expecting standards.
Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
Recent shift: Earlier reviews (4 years ago) cite poor service, high pricing, and cleanliness concerns; more recent reviews (last 2 years) show mixed results with some guests finding rooms comfortable and affordable, but others still reporting filthy linens and cockroaches.
