Great location and beds but some bathrooms need redesigning.
Pros:

The bed was very comfortable and the location was excellent. It was near the museums but quiet enough to get a good night's sleep. The staff were also lovely.

Cons:

The bathroom was small but ok. However, out of the 3 rooms booked, in one room the toilet was so close to the wall that it was impossible to sit on normally. Even in a small bathroom this was a major design flaw, a corner toilet not facing the wall would solve the problem.

Lindo pero hay aspectos a considerar.
Pros:

Es un alojamiento con aspectos polarizados.
Por un lado es muy buena la ubicación realmente un 10, calle tranquila de casas típicas, bonitas, cerca de la parada.
La habitación está perfectamente bien mantenida, moderna bien distribuida, lindos muebles y detalles, sábanas limpias y buenas (pero camas bien angostas, diría q de 70cm c/u) se notaba todo nuevo.
Baño chico, justo de espacio con buenos amenities.
Personal de recepción muy amable
Desayuno correcto acorde al precio.

Cons:

Tiene escaleras empinadas, pero muy empinadas, si no sos joven o tenes equipaje grande - considerarlo seriamente.
En las habitaciones de planta 0 ( talvez en las otras plantas también) se escucha todo lo q sucede arriba como si fueran pisos de madera.
Si te toca arriba unos vecinos inquietos como a mi dormirás poco, no se como es el tema con los otros pisos.

Central to museum district
Pros:

We chose this hotel for its proximity to museums. The rooms were quite small, but clean and functional. The front desk was helpful, and had coffee, bar and breakfast options.
