Nice Small Hotel, but too Noisy
Overall good, but noise proofing was awful. A coffee area situated directly outside the bedrooms, which people decided to use at midnight. Very often the front desk was unattended, so not great if you had any questions. But if those things don't bother you, then the location is great and rooms are clean and fairly spacious

We booked the property because of it's central location, we hadn't realised quite how central it was! Right on a busy traffic junction, and noisy as a result. The option of a balcony with the room was pointless as it was too noisy to open the doors. The room was small and expensive for what it was

Excellent location. A few stairs but there’s a lift. Water pressure is amazing!!!! Parking is difficult to find on the street. Parking lot is difficult to figure out until you check in. The parking ticket system was also confusing as I think sometimes things get lost in translation from Spanish to English.

Property was not maintained well and the Air Conditioning did not work. It was a great area but accomodations were not up to minimal standards. Very uncomfortable night. I am glad we were only there one night.
