A economia na diária não valeu. Vou evitar usar essa rede em próximas oportunidades.
Pros:

Localização é boa. Limpeza do apartamento boa e dentro da expectativa.

Cons:

Não tem geladeira. Apartamento é bem pequeno para os padrões usuais desse padrão de hospedagem.

Nice motel
Pros:

The room was very clean and there were enough towels for 2 people. The bed was comfy enough though a little hard. I was in a room with a bathtub, which is a plus and highly appreciated.

Cons:

The walls are thin, and you can hear everything from the streets as well as the surrounding chambers. Wouldn't recommend if you're a light sleeper.
