Para el precio no se puede pedir mucho, la habitación tiene lo necesario, cama, baño y tina con regadera, la televisión no se si solo fue el de mi habitación o el de todas pero solo funcionaba un canal, los demás no servían, el cuarto no tenía ventanas y un solo ventilador, es algo a tomar en cuenta si usted padece de calores, la zona está bien ubicada pies tiene cerca una parada del tranvía y a minutos caminando la del metro, pasan buses públicos y hay mucho comercio de comida en el día y noche, solo aceptan efectivo o transferencias ningun lugar (incluído el hostal) acepta tarjetas ni de crédito o débito, el lugar NO tiene servicio de lavandería para huéspedes, me tocó buscar uno en la zona, y tomar en cuenta que los domingos la mayoría de comercios están cerrados, el lugar NO es accesible para sillas de ruedas pues se tienen que subir varias gradas en la entrada, la entrada es pequeña y angosta, casi no se ve, el personal fue amable y si están disponibles las 24 horas, los cuartos al ser pequeños se escuchan ruidos de otros cuartos, ruidos incómodos y ruidos normales como la gente tosiendo, bañándose, etc. Cómo repito, por el precio no se puede pedir demasiado, le pongo 4/5 estrellas por el buen precio y ubicación pero falsa información sobre el servicio de lavandería
