This place was cheap in more ways than one. After we'd paid for a room and were about to head up to it a Cambodian lady (under the influence) fell down the steep stairs leading up to the bedrooms and cut her hand on a glass. It was a terrible experience, watching her scream as the security guard dragged her... more

I had intended staying a few days and pre-booked it. This hotel was recommended to me by a mate. I left after first night. So what do you get for $15 a night? * Hotel located in slum district. * Surrounding streets have uncollected garbage piled 4 feet high. (And the surrounding area smells like a garbage dump 24-7) *... more

Really just a front for a brothel. Owner Glenn would be better with a little more professional approach to his personal presentation - dresses like a bagman and it reflects on his hotel. He should learn to keep his thoughts to himself instead of gossiping about his clientile. Rooms are OK for the price but really is best described as... more
