Easy place to stay near Central de Autobuses del Norte
Pros:

Very convenient location for arriving or departing from the Central de Autobuses del Norte and a relatively easy bus ride into other parts of the city. Appreciated having a simple but effective restaurant option in the hotel since there weren't a lot of food options in the immediate area. Staff were very kind and the check-in and check-out process was quick and easy. The room itself was rather comically large.

Cons:

Somehow the pillows were absolutely terrible? But the best was otherwise comfortable and clean.
