It’s ok for an overnight, but not more.
Pros:

Clean place. Good location. Walking distance from the city centre.

Cons:

More like a hostel than hotel. The rooms are old, need to be refurbished. The staff does not speak English at all. When I asked: “Do you speak English?”, the answer was very rude “NO.” Thankfully I am adequate in Spanish.
