Pros:

The room was clean and fresh. The best bed I've ever slept on.

Cons:

The shower was overflowing and the toilet kept us up front the night. Mentioned it to staff upon check out but didn't seemed to bothered.

Tener que hacer el check inn antes de las 18:00 y hay un pub donde gestionan las habitaciones, no tiene sentido, alejado del centro

Amazing and the burgers were delicious too!
Pros:

Location was central to any store or shop needed. Even had prescription emergency refill when I ran out of a med at a very close pharmacy. John and David were amazing, very friendly and helpful. We would suggest the girl work at a home improvement store. There was zero interest in us or asking if everything was ok. In the states some jobs employees need to be paid $3 per hour and the rest is tips on performance. She clearly had no reason to do a good job. She should go somewhere else to work. Maybe try smiling, that would be nice.

Cons:

Just the girl. My partner and I were in full agreement on that.
