    Given the low cost of the accommodation, my expectations were not high, but I really enjoyed my stay all the same. There were numerous quirky aspects to the hotel which may make it unsuitable for the more demanding tourist, but, by using a...

    Surprisingly good hotel for that price. Looks better than in the photos. Old hotel but very nicely maintained. Very large rooms, comfy bed. They also have a free water dispenser which is a bonus.

    A decent hotel in a convenient location close to the market. Friendly staff, spacious room and bathroom with a bidet. A bit hard bed for a European. Great value for money. You may stay 24 hrs after the check in time, which is great.

    Everything was good, and expectations were met. There is a big bazar in front, so make sure to visit it. But bear in mind bazar doesn't work on Monday. The size of the room was huge.
