This hotel used to be a 5 star that has lost a lot in it's ratings. This should be known as a 3 star hotel.

Investment needed to restore hotel’s glory days

One of my colleagues suffered from a bed bite attack. The showers on the third floor need to refurbished. The air conditioner and WI-FI of my colleagues did not function.
