Boa
Pros:

A localização até que é boa, o café da manhã é bom, e o pessoal gentil

Cons:

O ar-condicionado ficou sem funcionar, e também eles não respondem no WhatsApp da recepção, pois precisava fazer alguns pedidos e tive que descer pra poder solicitar, sendo que tem um WhatsApp pra isso. Acho que deveria ter telefones no quarto com serviço de quarto, e deveria ter águas na geladeiras, por mais que o cliente pague.fiz alguns pedidos pelo QR code no aplicativo que eles oferecem, o pedido nunca chegou.

No volvería.
Pros:

El desayuno estaba ok. Es una zona centrica que esta cerca de las escaleras y el tranvía. El hall no esta mal. Poder dejar la mochila segura post check out es un punto muy bueno. La terraza estaba ok. El personal de seguridad y cocina 10 puntos.

Cons:

La zona, a pesar de ser centrica se siente muy insegura. Las habitaciones, falta de limpieza, olor feo. Los baños compartidos tenían zarpado olor a pis, le faltaba más limpieza durante el día. En recepción, cuando nos quejamos que la pieza tenía olor a pis de gato, nos dijeron que esperaramos a que consiguieran otra... Cuando fuimos a quejarnos por 2da vez justo justo justo se había liberado una pieza parece, cuestión que cuando fuimos no tenía ni shampoo, ni jabón. La habitación no tenía internet por lo que la tele que tiene la pieza es de decoración (al pedo) porque ni cable tiene.

Mala experiencia. Llegamos a las 02:30 y cuando entramos a la habitación habían otras personas.
Pros:

El desayuno se veia bastante bien, la habitación era grande

Cons:

Nuestra habitación estaba ocupada, tuvimos que esperar hasta las 03:00 hasta tener una habitación (que lamentablemente estaba sin limpiar del todo. Tenía pelos y habían deposiciones en el baño). El aire acondicionado no funcionaba.
