Pros:

The walls are paper-thin; you can hear absolutely every sound from every other room in the building. We could hear soft-spoken conversations in other rooms, and the man across the hall snoring throughout the night. In our visit, the people upstairs were blasting music and partying all night, and unfortunately, it was as if we were in the room with them. The place itself felt very safe and is in a great location. Check-in was very easy and accommodating. It was clean and well-kept. I would avoid the room with the detached bathroom, as it is very annoying to sneak through the hallway to use it, but it is openly marketed as such.

Pros:

Was as advertised. Basic accommodations that were clean and affordable, pared down amenities but really all I needed was a room and shower. The room I was in had a detached bathroom which I thought would be more annoying but really wasn’t. Only thing is the bathroom was freezing cold and would benefit from better insulation or a small heater.

Pros:

The walls are very thin. I understand that it's an older building, however, I could hear everything as if it was right on the other side of the door, and I mean everything. The bed is very firm and uncomfortable. I also wish there was some kind of full-length mirror somewhere in the room.

The location is good and everything felt safe. It was also nicely decorated and clean overall.

Pros:

This is a renovated house so the room plan is a little unconventional with external bathrooms (private). The rooms are attractive, although a desk would have been nice for our room for laptop work. The location worked well for our purposes as we have family to visit in the Lakeview district. We did not interact with any staff, as check in was performed online and a code is issused to access the front door, room, bathroom, and internal hallways. A good price, but I would pay a little more for an en suite bathroom and a desk the next time.

Pros:

Don’t get the room I did with the bathroom down the hall. Going through two key pad doors to get to the toilet in the middle of the night is definitely not worth the better room.

Estupendo
Pros:

Hotel pequeño y cómodo. Metro al lado para ir al centro en 20 minutos. Habitación cómoda y buenas camas.
Además, tuvimos un problema y nos ayudaron muchísimo. Estoy muy agradecida, nos ayudaron con el problema, nos facilitaron todo y nos ayudaron a resolverlo de manera rápida y eficaz, más allá de sus competencias. Estoy muy agradecida. Sin dudarlo recomendaría este hotel por su confort, precio y ubicación. Y, si tienes una dificultad, tienes un staff que te ayuda y resuelve cuando más lo necesitas.

All good
Pros:

Hotel is in a nice location and I felt very safe. Room was clean though it was a little strange that the bathroom is accross the hallway and not in the room (it was ok since it was a private bathroom and there is only 2 rooms on the floor).
