Convenient location, basic room
Pros:

The location of the hotel is very convenient for sightseeing, close to a metro station and two palaces and a temple. The room was very small and had only a small window looking at a wall. Just good enough for sleeping, but not to spend some time in it.

Pros:

I got a double room and I am 5 foot four, but Room was extremely small. Bathroom was also very small. The sink was extremely low. I kept hitting my feet against the bed post which was raised. Do not recommend if you’re taller than 5 feet.

Pros:

It's a small room in the center of downtown with lots of nearby dining and transportation. If you know you are just going to sleep and not hang out in the room it's a fantastic place to stay. Breakfast could have been a touch better but with the limited space they have, it was adequate to get the day started.

Pros:

As the name suggests, this hotel offers a simple stay. Do not expect too many amenities or a great view; get out of the hotel for those! But good value and a good stay with friendly and helpful staff.

The breakfast was very minimal in its variety and the seating area for breakfast is very limited, so I would personally recommend exploring breakfast options elsewhere. Bakeries and cafés within ~10 minures walking distance would be a better option.

Very nice hotel!
Pros:

Clean, comfortable, and a great value for the price. We loved the jacuzzi tub in our room. The check-in and checkout process was easy with friendly and helpful staff. The location is excellent and convenient for tourists. The only thing I wish they had was a shower cap, as I forgot mine at home.
