I would stay there again, I only recommend that the rooms be cleaned better.
Pros:

The location was the best, I love it and the staff was very friendly.

Cons:

We could notice that it was not cleaned before our arrival. The bed was really good but the bathroom was not cleaned. It did not smell like is was cleaned.

Mauvais rapport qualité/prix
Pros:

- Emplacement
- Café à disposition

Cons:

- Douche en piteux état : un filet d’eau seulement s’écoulait de la douchette
- La poubelle des toilettes dans laquelle nous sommes censés jeter le papier toilette usagé (car on ne peut le jeter dans les toilettes) n’est pas vidée quotidiennement
- Aucune insonorisation (bruits de la rue et des chambres mitoyennes)
- Ménage très limite : cheveux et poils dans le lit

Nous savions que l’établissement se présente comme un hostal et non un hôtel mais au vu du prix, un minimum de confort doit être assuré !

Solo me gustó la ubicación
Pros:

La ubicación es única

Cons:

1- personal enfermo, pero resfriado full, tocaba sus mocos luego te daba la llave
2- relación a precio, me he quedado en otros lugares a ese precio y traen tv aunque sea pequeña
3- toda la noche camina por fuera se escuchaba la madera rechinar a otro nivel
4- deben aclarar que el baño es abajo y lejos, que solo es 1 para la cantidad de gente, estabas en el inodoro y no había una vez que no te tocaran
5- el cuarto olía raro y la cama daba la impresión más las almohadas que no había sido lavadas

Pero la ubicación es única

Aceptable
Pros:

La ubicación es buenísima

Cons:

no cuentan con aire ni abanicos por lo que en ma habitación hace un poco de calor, mucho ruido se escucha todo, los pisos al ser de madera suenan mucho, la mayoría que se hospedan son extranjeros, la cama no es muy cómoda.

Pros:

Well taken care of. Clean. Super good price for location and amenities. Would be good to update the kitchenware. Comfortable beds (I was in a DORM). And an amazing terrasse and a balcony.
