Cheap, but noisy *

Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A A

the hotel lies right in the city on a main road, corresponding loud it, during the day you can no window open. Shopping streets are not far away and well within walking distance. The port is only a taxi ride, if you have a driver will find the way you want to go. The drive too far for some ☺ of 21 o'clock begins in the bar in the waiters (does not belong to the hotel) the music, Indian music for money with dancers, the one waiter from the crowd to them, taking in Bollywood dance, the blasts music through the whole building, up three o'clock in the morning is not to sleep and even though my room on the fourth floor.
