fantastic stay!!!
brief walk friendly lady nice decor balcony room
The hotel was a brief five-minute walk from the centro station. This was convenient considering our late arrival. a very friendly lady checked us in and gave us details on nearby points of interest. the hotel offered nice decor and good-sized rooms. i loved the balcony room.
The hotel lacked soundproofing from the street beneath our bedroom. the noise during the night was HORRENDOUS. a bar is located opposite the hotel. garbage bins are situated there.

adequate stay
room layout nice presentation sound proofing street noise
the room layout was really good. i found many compartments that allowed us to keep our things separated from one another. the breakfast included lots of variety and the presentation was nice.
the soundproofing from the street was not good. i heard noise all night. a bar is located opposite the hotel, and a row of bins added to the sound issues.

lack of soundproofing constant noise
the location was acceptable for exploring the area.
the lack of soundproofing was a major problem. noise from a nearby bar was constant. trash collection at 5:30 am was also disruptive, despite closed shutters.
