Don't go unless you like getting woken up by a leaf blower.
Pros:

The staff has cleaned the place in front of the hotel, right below room windows, with a leaf blower at 7:30AM on a saturday morning.

Didn’t
Pros:

Location was perfect, beautiful view from windows, spacious room

Cons:

The electrical kettle didn’t work, no refigerator or mini bar. Small things had it not been for the price. Not a cheap place. The whole place had a feel of a bygone era. A place that need some care.
