Honest review

What could be better

  • Management needs to fix technical issues like broken windows, non-functional mini-fridges, and structural defects, while ensuring rooms are deep-cleaned to remove stains.
  • The hotel must improve guest safety and privacy by addressing reports of theft and ensuring housekeeping does not enter occupied rooms unannounced.
  • Training is required to ensure consistent concierge assistance with luggage and better recognition of loyalty status, especially regarding transparent room upgrades and sizes.

How we choose

Every hotel on this list is cross-checked across Google, Booking.com, Tripadvisor, Agoda and Hotels.com — plus first-hand traveler accounts on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok. We screen aggressively for fake or incentivised reviews and weight only verified, recent, substantive guest feedback. We accept no paid placements and no sponsored reviews. When affiliate links earn a small commission, we disclose it; it never influences which hotels appear here.
