Do not recommend!
Pros:

Price

Cons:

The room was not clean. A blanket was not provided automatically, so we had to ask for it. When they came to bring the blanket the attendant attempted to automatically enter the room. Early check in was not an option. There was no water available to us once we were allowed to check in. The breakfast was very vague with few choices. There were roaches in the room (seen upon waking). The tub/shower was broken. They refused to give me a check out receipt, stating, booking.com will provide a receipt. I do not recommend this location.

Não jogue seu dinheiro fora.
Pros:

Nada. Quarto velho, com mal cheiro, com estado de conservação precário.

Cons:

Não existe café da manhã, ao contrário do que dito. O que é servido não se pode nomear. Trata-se de exclusivamente de um café preto e uma massa para vc mesmo preparar seu waffle.
