When one of your friends arriving late to your hotel hears his taxi driver proclaim “I thought they closed that place down years ago,” you know there is something to be concerned about. What the pictures don’t tell you is that the ‘The Damrak’ - a term that will forever define a shoddy establishment amongst my fellow Damrakians – is... more

OMG what a bad hotel, i have never stayed in such a bad place before! The stairs are dangerously steep It stinks I was unable to sleep in the beds after getting bitten by the mites living in them! more

Good location, clean rooms...however, although the bathroom looked clean, it absolutely stunk of gut wrenching urine! It was very hard to breath without heaving. The smell would have knocked a lesser person out cold. more

Staying at this hotel right now with a group for 6 for a conference. We each have a room with twin beds. Being the type to normally stay in better hotels and having stayed at the Pulitzer Luxery Hotel in town, I thought my experience at this hotel would be worse.

We couldn't use the... more

The pictures in the website is very misleading. Our room turns out to be cramped, dark and stuffy. The ventilation of the room is very poor. If you open the window, you invite the mosquitoes. If you close it, you risk suffocation. Neither guarantees a good night's sleep. It is at best a hostel, definitely not a hotel. Will NOT... more
