One can barely call this a hotel. Right outside the entrance, there's an ATM where a homeless person sleeps, and cigarette butts and general grime are a permanent fixture. The windows and facade are visibly dusty and neglected, with no one around to maintain them. The lobby carpet is filthy. The elevator looks like it was built in the late 1800s (no exaggeration!) – it's dirty and only goes up to the 4th floor. If your room is on the 5th floor (there are 5 floors total), you'll be carrying your own luggage. The stairs haven't seen a vacuum cleaner in ages; the dust has definitely been accumulating for a while.
The room reeked of cigarettes and ash. There was broken furniture, dirty windows, and a tiny bathroom with exposed pipes and a constant sewage smell (no extractor fan). The shower tray didn't drain properly, lamps were broken, and bins were dirty. The bed had an incredibly uncomfortable spring mattress. The room's carpet also hadn't been vacuumed in ages, and during my week-long stay (booked by my company), the room was never cleaned. The only 'positive' was that the sheets were white, as was the single towel I had to use for the entire week...
So, I'd strongly advise avoiding this place, even if you're trying to save money. Since the walls are paper-thin, imagine your stay if your neighbors are talking on the phone or watching TV all night! If you manage to find someone at the front desk to ask for a room change or a quick clean, they'll 'diligently make a note of it,' but I guarantee nothing will change! And don't expect a receipt either.
