Great location. Good value. Needs a bit of tlc.
Pros:

Situate at the bottom of Columbus avenue, it had easy walking access to waterfront and North Beach restaurants/bars.

Cons:

The building itself and the rooms were a bit run down. No fridge and no bowl/cutlery in the room, making milk for breakfast in the room a bit tricky.

No city view, old dullish decor, Great night Mgr, stressed worn out morning receptionist,
Pros:

Tony the night manager was great... A true professional in hospitality. Bed was comfortable.

Cons:

There is no city view, even on top floor, as advertised on Booking.com
The room was practical, but furniture looked like original 50 year old dark furniture... not uplifting. I'd suggest to owners make some low cost, lighter brighter upgrades.
There was construction noise on the roof, right above my top floor ceiling. These things happen, BUT when i told the the morning lady at reception at 9am the noise is really bad, she replied.... "it is scheduled maintenance, and we have to run a business". so basically tough luck, no true care... So bad she didn't realise what she was saying... Apologised later, after i said i'd leave a 2 star review, but she didn't mean it. The owners may want to move her to a non customer facing role.
