The hotel staff were friendly and helpful and we appreciated the fridge and microwave. The sheets did not tuck in to the bed so did not stay out through the night and we were surprised to see that there was no seating on the rooftop terrace - that seemed like an easy thing to do to make the terrace usable with its lovely view.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel is in a rundown section of the city. Have to be extra careful of surroundings. The other main issue of this hotel is the constant traffic noise and loud music from a bar all night long. The loud music and traffic did not allow to sleep all night. Rooms are good size but the windows are not noise cancelation build. Breakfast is badic acceptable. I would not go back or recommend this hotel.

AC was comfortable. Room was nice but there was a lot of street noise. The streets around the hotel became desolate at night and unsavory characters tend to walk around the area. The staff was generally friendly.
