The location is very good. I could walk to the city main attractions. Public transportation access is easy. The room was as described I needed for my basic needs. I only stayed one night. The staff member were good and helpful. It's a budget, no frills hotel. It is super clean and cozy. The Wifi work very good.
The walls are thin, I heard noises from the doors. It made sleep difficult.
