“Scarey and stressful”
Not much to say positively. Protesters had been camping outside the hotel for 10 days without any warning. Two groups clashed, and riot police were stationed on both sides of the hotel door, which was frightening. We left when it was quiet, but when we tried to exit onto the street, the police blocked us and forced us to take another route. We were stopped again on the alternate street and told the road was closed; after arguing and showing our booking on the app, we were finally allowed in. Knowing about the trouble in that area would have made us reconsider staying there. Even after we got inside, the riots and police kept us awake all night – overall a very stressful, scary experience.
