Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The bed was so rough and it was so hot but the air conditioning was so loud and there wasn't an option to not have it turned off auto. I could barely sleep.

Pros:

The room was well done and clean.

Cons:

They had no decaf. Had to unplug the microwave to use the coffee pot. The glass coffee pot was too short for the coffee maker. TV was smallest I've seen since 70's. Toilet seat didn't fit toilet. Floor lamp by bed didn't work. Just lots of little things were wrong, considering what we paid.

I would stay again. A warmer welcome would be nice.
Pros:

On arrival reception was not friendly or inviting. No smiles or welcomed. Felt like I was being judged as whether I would be appropriate to stay in shared hostel room.

Cons:

Nothing. Great spot charming building.

Good. Can do better on the basics.
Pros:

Great location and good valve for money.

Cons:

Missing some of the basics that could push the score - no hooks or hangars in either the room or bathroom. AC suddenly makes a loud rattling noise
