“Centric Location”

good location, close to central plaza, ideal when you need the public transportation to move around. Excelent for young people who are in a budget.

“wonderful staff compensate for less than ideal accommodation”

the woman checking us in was delightful. friendly, polite, efficient. however, the hotel was less "chic" and more "basic" than the description (and even the photos) had led us to believe. the room was small, which we expected, but the bathroom was actually part of the same room (which we didn't expect) with just an opaque glass slider separating the bed from the toilet or shower (in fact, the structure didn't allow both toilet and shower to be closed off at the same time). this in itself wouldn't have been a huge issue, except that at times there was a rather strong odour from the toilet. note that this was NOT due to a lack of cleanliness, but rather, i suspect, to old plumbing that didn't allow for proper ventilation. in fact, there were air fresheners in use in the hotel corridor, so i suspect this odour might be an issue throughout. in addition, the reading lights in the room did not work. the very kind staff member indicated that she'd have them fixed, but this did not happen during the 4 days we stayed there. the breakfast was spartan, but adequate. we enjoyed the chance to set our own breakfast time. the coffee maker was broken for part of the time we were there, but presumably this doesn't happen often. apart from these issues, things were adequate. and the location of the hotel is terrific. i would recommend it to someone who's not worried by somewhat spartan conditions but who wants a central spot not to relax or hang out in but just for sleeping.

“Not a good place to get sleep - but otherwise good stay”

Although, we got a private room as advertised, it sounded and felt like we were in the middle of a multi person room. The walls were very thin and all floors were tile which made everything echo loudly. If you want to be able to rest at night, this is not a good pick. Too much night life traffic between midnight and 4 a.m. Otherwise it was very clean and had a nice breakfast.

“LOUSY HOSTEL”

THE HOTEL SUCKS... THERE IS NO TOWEL, NO SHEETS, AND THE OUTLET FOR CHARGING IS FAR FROM THE BED. RECEPTION ARE NOT FRIENLDLY, THE PLACE IS NOISY AND THE CROWD ARE NOISY TOO AND THE STAFF CANT CONTRL THE CROWD FROM SHOUTING AND YELLING....... THE LIFT ARE VERY SLOW.... MY STAY IS LIKE A NIGHTMARE..... AND THE HOT WATER IS NOT REALLY WORKING... DIM LIGHTS ARE TOO BRIGHTS.... NOT WORTH TO STAY
