the photos online made me believe this hotel had its own restaurant. it turns out it uses photos of a restaurant next door, giving a false impression, which i found very misleading. also, i was expecting breakfast to be served at the hotel, but it doesn't offer any. the shower panel had cracks, the towels were old. this hotel is not a 4 star hotel, more like a worn 3 star.
