Good value for money
Pros:

Great location. Centre of the red light district. Good price compared to a lot of others for a reasonable room and private bathroom unless you want to go for a proper hostel to get something really cheap.

Cons:

Shower didn't drain quick enough so bathroom floor got really wet and took a while before it dried out. Otherwise generally good value for money and what you would expect from a busy hotel in this location.

Bad.
Pros:

they kept an eye on who was coming in and out. so it nice.
Some of the staff were sweet, but that's not enough

Cons:

Where do I start?
You can only check in at 3pm, not before. Fair enough.
We arrive and got our room.
When we opened the door, I got a shock.
it's very small, doesn't look like the pictures.
The walls were Freaking dirty, it was disgusting. If we hadn't just paid, we would have found another hotel.

There was a single chair, with stains on to, No table.
The bed frame had white stains.
There was no dustbin, the window couldn't be opened. So you couldn't freshen up a bit. There was a heat pump.

Long black curtains for the large windows, which also had stains on them.
There hadn't been vacuuming under the bed..
It's very noisy, you can hear People on the stairs and hallway. Very noisy.
On day, our door to the room wouldn't lock. We always check the door before we leave.
We got hold of the receptionist. Luckily they fixed it.

Skip to the next day, we go out once again. We check the door and it is locked.

When we got back, we put the keycard in, then the door slams. Strange. Then the cleaning staff has been there to give us new towels, and THEY DIDNT CLOSED THE DOOR, after them. That's not okay, i was mad. luckily! All our things were stil there…
Later that day, we are going out again.
Again our door won't lock and they had to fix our one more time.

They were sitting on the stairs to the hotel, not everyone moved when we came and had to go up the stairs, it's a narrow staircase.

We didn't pay attention to the location, right in the middle of a red light.

We are not satisfied at all and we will never recommend this hotel.
- 5 stars her.

Pros:

La ubicación excelente, la habitación está bien, el baño también. Sin problema con el agua y bien el aire acondicionado.

Cons:

El acceso es por escalera, muy empinada, nos tocó piso 3. Imposible para persona mayor o con niños o con problemas de columna como es mi caso.
Deberían hacer control de ácaros y pulgas.
