location good, but the room had issues
good locationtiny showerloud fan
The location was acceptable. It was easy enough to walk to the city's sites from the hotel.
the room i got didn't quite match the pictures, it felt smaller than expected. the shower was ridiculously tiny (honestly, how small can you make a shower?). also, the air conditioning was more like a loud fan. someone even turned it off while i was out.
