Great location at fair price!
Pros:

Very Central and old hotel vibe was great!

Cons:

The noise caused by the kitchen ovens that start early morning is bit disturbing for the upper rooms.

Awesome Staff!
Pros:

The staff was amazing! They were always helpful, friendly. And they cleaned the rooms every day! The breakfast was awesome. The bathroom was excellent! Always had hot water. The heart of this hotel is the staff. Thank you so much for such an amazing stay.

Cons:

There was a broken frame that was still in the room. I think it's better if you just removed it. DSTV is so over. Rather have Netflix. It was small things, but everything else was really nice.
