Only if you're backpacking and need a bed overnight
Pros:

Not much

Cons:

Very hard to check in. No elevator and several floors. 3 beds crammed in one room and the bathroom was extremely unsafe. We rented a nice apartment with 2 bedrooms bathroom with washer/dryer and full kitchen a couple blocks away WHICH WAS THE SAME PRICE. We left early without a refund because it was that bad. The building would be amazing and it is historic but has not been kept up AT ALL. There was one outlet and it was in the makeshift closet....Hostel vibes 😬

Room ok - staff problematic
Pros:

Good location, room was clean

Cons:

The hotel staff doesn’t meet even basic 2-star standards. The lobby feels more like a gambling den than a hotel lobby, and the staff’s behavior reflects that.
