Grand President

Bad wifi coverage, not enough for the bed 3 meters away from the router. Dirty room. Broken shower head. Non-flexible toad shower hose. Broken electrical outlets. Broken light switches. No extra sockets for chargers by the bed. Bad picture on tv. Paid for a more expensive room, but the view was a concrete wall. First and last time at this hotel. Not recommended

The place is right in the middle of a tourist area, absolutely plastered with men from everywhere looking for sex. Not quite red light district, but sex workers are everywhere you turn, and men of all ages, sizes, and nationalities can be seen haggling for their services. Thought this was a good deal. It's a much older place, the air smells a bit musty in the rooms. Stayed 4 nights. The safe didn't work. Called the staff. Couldn't fix it and even brought in a new safe. After an hour they said they'd have to come back and i had to be in the room while they did it. So i gave up. I tip the housekeeper who does the rooms up every day, and yet they didn't take the trash out. I had to ask the front desk to do it. The bathtub has this weird design that water flows around the side and back of the tub, then onto the floor. So every time you take a shower half the bathroom floor is wet. Tiny cockroaches found every day since, but nonetheless... roaches. I'm not entirely happy with this place, but i do have to say that it works. I asked for a non-smoking room, and they put me on a non-smoking floor, but I've come back to the room, and it smelled like cigarettes. I've been in the room at night, and the smell of cigarettes wafts in now and then as if someone was smoking periodically. I've talked to the staff, but all they could do is spray the place down with some kind of scent, which i said no to. It's pointless to simply hide the smell. They offered to move me but on my last day and night. It's rather pointless to do so, considering we have to repack our bags and belongings. After all this i tried asking for a late checkout at 4pm and they wanted to charge me. And the latest they could give me was 1pm. By this time, i was super frustrated. I heaved a big sigh and covered my face and said OK. The girl at the front desk begrudgingly said ok but till 3. A while later, i think the senior front desk staff called me in my room to confirm i could checkout at 4. The senior lady was right from the start superb in the way she treated me and remembered from day 1. Oh and if you believe in the supernatural... DON'T come here. It was WEIRD every night. I'm not angry nor raging. It is what it is, but i can say for sure I'm not coming back here, nor will i recommend this place to anyone.
