I arrived at this hotel ridiculously early at 6:30AM. The doors were bolted and locked and nobody was around until well after 7:30AM when a local shopkeeper took pity on me and alerted the staff. They could not have been more apologetic, even though I wasn't expecting to check in until later, I just wanted to be able to leave my bags. However, they checked me in straight away and gave me breakfast! I was very impressed! However...
When I tried to shower, the cold water tap came off in my hand, sending a forceful jet of water cascading all over the bathroom, soaking everything, as I struggled to reattach it. Then I realized there was no hot water at all and after running the hot tap through the shower for a few minutes, it completely dried up.They moved me to a lower floor and a similar room. I tested the shower and all seemed fine.
In the morning, the same thing happened. The hot tap ran cold for a few minutes, then dried up completely.
The second room had a mesh instead of glass in the bathroom window, which was rotting and full of holes, so someone had patched it with old newspaper. This didn't stop the mosquitos getting in and I was eaten alive during the night. The manager denied there was newspaper over the window, until I showed him! He also strenuously denied there was any problem with the plumbing and insisted there was both hot water and working showers. He seemed quite angry to be proven wrong.
