Jupiter Hotel: Avoid the Jupiter if you want to sleep
by zuhur
This is a new hotel; our international hosts provided a modest allowance insufficient to cover cost of the Hilton or Sheraton. Don't stay here. I kept debating every night whether I should move over to the Hilton as I could not sleep, it was hot and stuffy with no air con. If you open the windows (which you must) the mosquitos rush in. They have no fans. The first room I was in was tiny. Rooms and common areas are so dimly lit it is hard to see. Worst of all, there are no mattresses. Or they are calling the bed frame a bed. Hard as a rock. The hotel manager saw I intended to sleep on a couch in the lobby, and switched my room. They put a blanket over the bed frame, however that did not turn it into a mattress. OK, it was larger, but also hot, noisy, full of mosquitos and with the same hard bed. The bathrooms stink -- a bad toilet smell. The food is also indifferent. Not a four star as they claim.
I heard after I left there was a pool on the roof - no indication. Also the phones don't work in the room, no one answers at the desk, and there is an internet area, but extremely slow, and hard to download files.
Amazingly noisy at night and without air con you have to open the windows, put in your earplugs and prepare for no sleep.
