The place is not hygienic complete trash, the room smells very bad. I do understand it's a 3 star hotel but hygiene is the basic of any hotel. I was not comfortable at all using any of the amenities in the room and the hotel.

If we were aware of that each room has a disco in it, we wouldnt have booked it. The noise which comes from 3 different bar/club in the hotel is not bearable, you cant get sleep, you cant get rest. Also there is a big bug family who stays at the hotel (probably there are thousands of them). The bathrooms are not clean. You need to make your own cleaning before peeing. So not a nice job in a hotel room ha? Beside that if it is the cheapest one, why not? But I'm sure there are better ones in their rates. Staff is good but they are a little bit strange. You can find someone in front of your room for the breakfast payment eventhough you made clear that you are going to pay it at the check-out!
