Unpleasant, dirty, no upkeed, no room service, no blankets or towells included on cost, no cleaning service on Sundays! They're abusively unfair in their website, where they say they offer a "preferential" service: neither description nor pics match the real place. Absolutely disadvantageous and uncomfortable.

I was there for a couple of months. Firstly, the management really dont care about the majority of the clients. Secondly, it is very unsafe.
