Pros:

Personal muy amable, rico desayuno.

Cons:

Sin lugar para pasar el rato, no hay áreas comunes. Súper aburrido el check in online, que por lo demás no sirve porque igual hay que hacer un largo proceso de check in al llegar.

Exceptional customer service made our stay very pleasant
Pros:

Exceptional staff, comfortable bed, nice sized room, good breakfast. Shanay (?spelling) in reception has especially good customer service.
Located in CBD very close to sights.
Note: there are stairs up to elevator that might limit access.

Cons:

Some reviews mention the area being dicey. The one night we stayed there we ubered because it’s so inexpensive. The hotel is very good value, don’t let that deter you especially for a short stay.
