Muy ruidoso
Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

El ruido. En la segunda noche una huésped comenzó a cantar a las 3 de la mañana y no la callaron. Al siguiente día llego un grupo de estudiantes y no controlaron el ruido. Dos dias consecutivos me estuvieron tocando la puerta en la noche

Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

La habitación estaba deteriorada, muy pequeño el cuarto y estaba sucio, e intentaron abrirme la puerta, al parecer le dieron la misma habitación a otro huésped.

Pros:

La ubicación del hotel es excelente, en el mero centro, a un lado del mercado, la cama es cómoda y se duerme bien.

Cons:

A los baños les falta ventilación, se queda oliendo a humedad y se esparce a todo el cuarto.
Entiendo que el hotel ya es antiguo y quieran mantener el toque rústico, pero le hace falta renovación en varias cosas, aunque esté limpio, se llega a ver sucio por lo mismo.
La habitación es un tanto pequeña
