    "If you can afford to pay a bit more, do, and stay somewhere else."
    "Dont book here...just because its cheaper..its a Health Hazard"
    "Don't choose the room "With private bathroom". That's just a posh phrase for "your bathroom is across the hallway, away from your bedroom""
    "Try another hotel"
    "Doubt there would be a good room, ours faced the back so quiet at night but sure it would still be dirty."
