This is very convenient place if your objective is to not spend lot of money, walkable to restaurants, and places you want to explore in the city. The room is very small though.

We appreciated the great communication from the hotel in advance of our stay. The room is very bare bones, but it is very large and clean. Wifi seemed very slow.

I have stayed here several times. Generally a good experience thanks to location, staff, size of room. I understand that this is a modestly-priced travellers’ hotel, so I don’t expect luxuries. However a few improvements would be great. A.) A full set of towels, including hand towels; B.) A full-length mirror in all rooms - a trip to ikea would do it; C.) a dresser for clothes D.) MOST IMPORTANT- A full refresh of all the carpeting. First time I stayed here was in the early 1980s, and it looks like it hasn’t been changed since.

I had a room for one. The room was clean, however there was an odour…almost septic like…which required the window to be open.
I found the hotel to be tired….not sure much effort is put in to upkeep
