Terrible. We actually wondered if this has been used for cooking P. Had a very distinctive, sour chemical smell and we had bad headaches. Place felt like it needed a very good clean, and was very shabby and tired. Good sized rooms and well located. The pool wasn't really useable - apparently they tried to limit numbers so you had to ask permission to use it - but it looked filthy so we avoided it. Not a great place to stay as a family and wouldn't recommend it to women travelling alone. Wondered if it was being used for emergency housing. Expensive and wouldn't stay here again.
