Ken

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Checked in, the only hotel that insisted on cash payment for city tax. Had two filghts of stairs to climb to the smallest hotel room I have ever seen. No assistance offered. "Double" bed hard against the wall, impossible to get out of if you were against the wall. No safe, no drinks facities, no hotel bar. Other rooms had bunk beds. Found somwhere else to stay and checked out. Managed to get the city tax back but that's all. Disgraceful, should no be on your books.

I feel like the hotel was a glorified hostil. It felt the goal was to get as many rooms into the space as possible. If youre not spending much time in the room, then its not a problem. The was clean which was great. But there was alot of construction going on during the day. No doubt adding more rooms. The breakfast was fine. The gentleman that checked us in, Omar was wonderful. Very informative and kind.

The location of the Hotel is really good, walkable from the main attractions, and very safe. Breakfast was good, enough to keep you going for a while. The only kind of bad experience I had, is that you can hear everything from the other rooms, the first night, somebody was arguing, and I couldn't sleep very well. Overall, the experience was good. Staff is very helpful and give you a map and recommendations for places to visit.

Our stay was pleasant. Staff and facilities were more than adequate and thankfully they had air conditioning .Main attractions were within walking distance but for some with disabilities or elderly might be more difficult in which case a short cab ride would suffice. Over all very pleasant.
