Great rooms, very friendly and funny staff, I give the neighborhood five stars for sheer entertainment. One day, two men ran out of a store in their underwear cursing at each other. Definitely recommend 👍

4/10 Fair

The hotel looks okay in the outside, but the rooms are not that well kept. The one man at the desk was quite rude when we first stopped by to ask about a taxi to the airport. His comment was he didn’t work at the airport! We would have stayed somewhere else at that point, but we had already paid for our room. I wasn’t impressed at all!

10/10 Exceptional

No a bad stay; the room had everything I needed and the staff were wonderful and very helpful. The only thing I didn’t care for was the smell emanating from the pipes in the bathroom in my room. I had to leave the bathroom window to the streets open and the bathroom door to the room closed to manage the stench. I believe the issue was not specific to my room but the pipes in the whole hotel.
