Like so many things in Algeria, this hotel could be nice if only someone would take time to care for it more, but they don't. The shelves in the wardrobe were collapsed and could not be replaced, there was only one coat hanger. The heating could not at first be turned off at the room was at 30 oC; once turned off, it could not be turned back on. The internet was intermittent; an internal hotel problem. There was a plug for the bath but it didn't fit the plug hole. The carpets in the hallways were dangerously curled up and, on Day 1, I found a dried ball of chewing gum in the sink. The doors did not close easily so they always had to be slammed. Taxis took 15-20 minutes to arrive after ordering, etc., etc. This is at best poor 2* but at 3-4* prices.
