Acceptable Location. Disappointing Cleanliness

cigarette smoke turkish channels

The location was convenient, and it was close to many shops.

The room wasn't clean. I noticed hairs and dust throughout. The lobby constantly smelled of cigarette smoke because staff frequently stepped outside to smoke. The tv only had Turkish channels and the wifi was very slow.
