Pros:

Location was fabulous. Right on the main area and surrounded by restaurants and shops. About a 5 minute walk to the airport bus and a little further to the main bus station.

Cons:

A kettle in the room would be really useful.

Pros:

Para el precio y una noche, no se puede pedir mucho. La habitación es amplia y la ubicación muy buena. El baño demasiado pequeño.

Cons:

Al estar en tan buena ubicación debería estar mejor insonorizado. Hay un bar justo abajo con música hasta las 3 y se escucha muchísimo.
Pero algo que no tiene nada que ver con el precio, la limpieza. La habitación limpia pero en el baño todo el techo lleno de mosquitos. Estas cosas, quitan valor. Puede ser pequeño, barato, antiguo, pero no hay excusa para no estar "limpio" o tener cuidado de estas cosas.
