Very unpleasant stay and not recommended.
Pros:

Location of hotel is good but it is situated right at the heavy traffic junction. It's extremely noisy the whole day and night. Cant really rest. It also lacks ventilation in the room and toilet/bath room.

Cons:

Location within the city center.

Good comfortable stay for cheap price
Pros:

Great location.

Cons:

Noisey by the main road. The bathroom isn’t flash and room is old and tired, but it is reasonable for the cheap price I suppose.
Hotel itself is quiet and staff are nice
