Good regarding the price tag
Pros:

Very friendly staff, they helped us with taxis at local prices repeatedly and where generally very courteous. The room was clean and the shower hot.

Cons:

The room looked a bit tired and as the window was facing another wall there was barely sunlight.

Pros:

Central Thamel so amongst all the restaurants/shops. Wooden room decor. Hot shower - after leaving to run for 5 minutes. All the staff were friendly and welcoming.

Cons:

Basic breakfast for western tastes. No formal indoor restaurant for the colder months. Being woken up for breakfast at 9 when it didn't finish until 10.

No volveré por las cucarachas
Pros:

El personal era amable y el desayuno estaba bien y variado.
La ubicación era muy buena.
