  Actually 4,5 stars. The location is really perfect, The staff was really nice and willing to help. We were able to leave our backpacks in the lobby for the whole day and they took really good care of it. Not 5 stars because our room was very small

  Very friendly staff and good location. Bathroom shared between 3 rooms so didn't have to wait long (if at all). Sink in the room was a plus. However, room very hot so we had to have the windows open and then it was very noisy from noise on street. Take ear plugs!! The TV in our room was broken. We didn't have breakfast but it looked very basic; Couple of types of cereal and bread. Overall, ok for a budget stay, but far from the best budget hotel I've ever been in!

  The Hotel is near the city centre.
  The rooms are tidy but the bathroom is not really big. The Personal is friendly.

  Very bad hotel, yes, it is in the center and the price is good BUT it is not a good experience overall, rooms are tiny and beds are uncomfortable. Not worth it. Choose a different hotel.

  Remember when reading this review, this is low star hotel that is cheap.
  
  Location: Great location. Within walking distance from the train station and all the main tourist sites which means also withing walking distance of all the tourist shopping and restaurants. However, that means people are walking by it all night long, which can be noisy. This wasn't a problem for us because we were so tired from the day that noise was not a problem.
  
  Rooms: I can't remember if the room had a ceiling fan or AC. The website claims it does. Luckily it was not hot when we went and we were able to be comfortable with the window open (which increased the noise of people walking by) so I don't think there was AC because why would we open the window, but who knows, I honestly can't remember. The room was basic, clean enough, and big enough (for a cheap, low star hotel remember). Our room had a sink and mirror in it which was a huge plus because the full bathroom was shared. This sink must be why the website claims to have "private en-suite bathroom facilities". The lighting in the room was pretty bad, so we needed to use the bathroom for makeup or do it in the low light.
  
  Bathroom: It was a shared bathroom, which can vary widely based on who you are sharing it with. The bathroom was one big tile room with a shower head, toilet, and sink all against the various walls. The shower was only sectioned off on the three sides with shower curtains, so when you took a shower, pretty much the whole room got wet. It was clean enough to start, but it was shared, so depending on when you get in there, the room may already be all wet or dirty depending on who is sharing it. It was not a problem for us because we were up early and used shower flip flops.
  
  Amenities: Wifi was free and worked well. One major gripe: we planned our trip around this being the midpoint and washing our clothes here, as the website "Hotel Services" section claims to have "Laundry service". However, when we asked about doing laundry, we were told the only laundry was down the road at the laundry mat..that's not laundry service.
  
  Bottom line: cheap, good location, shared bathroom is okay, sink in bedroom is super nice, rooms good enough, NO LAUNDRY. The laundry thing really pissed me off. So remember, this is a 4 star rating for a 2 star hotel. Don't go expecting anything more than a solid, cheap 2 star hotel.
