Pros:

Sijainti erinomainen. Edullinen sijaintiin ja verrokeihin nähden. Vaikka ei aamupalaa, saatavilla ollut ilmainen aamukahvi erinomainen lisä. Henkilökunta ystävällistä ja avuliasta.

Cons:

Liikenteen melu kuului kovana huoneeseen, vaikka ikkuna ei edes ollut suoraan kadulle. Herkkäunisena en pystynyt nukkumaan ilman korvatulppia. Hotelli vanha ja vähän kulahtanut, mutta hintaan nähden ok.

Pros:

El personal es muy amable

Cons:

Las fotos engañan, había mucho polvo y telarañas de hecho nos cambiaron a otra habitación por ese motivo y ni si quiera la otra habitación estaba bien, aunque el personal es amable y la ubicación lo mejor

Pros:

No bugs or cockroaches.

Cons:

Very clunky and old. Towels were so old, they looked grey instead of white. Everything in the room could use an upgrade, including the mattress, shower, walls, curtains (stain all over them). Minor changes could make the room more welcoming and comfortable. Also the room was not cleaned everyday. The value to price was low. I would not recommend this hotel to a friend.

Pros:

I liked the room, had all the indispensable things for resting well.

Cons:

If you don’t ask for room cleaning, it is not done, but you are never informed that you must request it 24 hours in advance.
The hotel says there is parking available, but when you arrive, you have to walk three blocks to a parking lot that costs USD 38 per day.

Pros:

El hotel está muy bien ubicado, lo que facilita muchísimo moverse por la ciudad. El wifi funcionaba perfectamente durante toda la estadía y el staff fue siempre súper amable y dispuesto a ayudar. Tanto el check-in como el check-out fueron muy simples y rápidos. El sistema de parking está bien organizado y resulta práctico.

Cons:

Como puntos negativos, la habitación era un poco pequeña y se escuchaban bastante los ruidos del techo y de las habitaciones contiguas, lo que a veces dificultaba el descanso. Además, no contaba con heladera en la habitación.
