Pros:

The room had everything you needed and was clean and great value for money.

Cons:

It was quite loud at night due to being near lots of bars - lots of people shouting outside. They did provide ear plugs but if you are a light sleeper this might not be the place for you.

Hidden little hotel in a good spot for site seeing, shopping and food
Pros:

Reasonably priced. Shower area and toilet room are separate. This is the only hotel we stayed in where it wasn’t up against the wall.

Cons:

The mattress is awful! I feel like we could feel all the springs. And if one of us moved the whole bed bounced. We did not sleep well.
