Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's good value for price and decent room size, with some praising the comfortable beds and helpful staff. However, many reviews highlighted significant issues with cleanliness, including dirty rooms and unpleasant odors. The hotel's location was frequently described as unsafe and in a bad neighborhood, which detracted from the overall experience. Service was also criticized for being unhelpful or indifferent. Despite these negatives, some guests found the hotel acceptable for budget stays and convenient for public transport access.

Pros (+) The Art Decorated rooms were pretty and esthetically pleasing to the artistic eye, but that's it.

Pros (+) The hotel is centrally located near everything. The staff is nice and the facility is kept clean.
Cons (-) No AC; and, we had to sleep with the windows open. While sleeping with the windows open is not bad, we had to put up with the noisy city life.
