“Based on what I've gathered, booking here involves navigating potential hidden fees, which is never a pleasant surprise. Stories of reservations not being honored, particularly during peak times, are concerning. While budget-friendly stays are appealing, reports of run-down conditions suggest caution is warranted.”
