Pros +
- The cleanliness and that there was staff available 24 hours.
- Location
- Everyone was friendly and helpful. The hotel felt safe and affordable - it was centrally located. We walked everywhere.
Cons -
- My window was next to the bar so it was so loud even after 1:00 am.
- Was NOT as advertised. This place is a hostel not a hotel. The tiny room had only a bunk bed, no cups, trash can, had to pay for a towel. It was a total DUMP. Was way overcharged.
- There were a few young people, who were likely drunk, making all kinds of noise - quite loudly and suddenly - at about 3 am one night and 4 am another night.
