I liked the area but the noise in the front was abit hard to sleep. Im happy with where they put us after. Also, beds are abit hard and pillows were too big for my neck. The service was good and loved the ac. I loved that it was walking distance to alot of things.

Lo mejor de el hotel los dos recepcionistas Samuel y Nicoles ellos muy atentos y rápidos. La piscina es no aceptable llegamos sábado y recién se limpió miércoles cuando entramos en ella es tan pequeña que nos llegó el agua a la rodilla. Muy limpia los cuartos y amplios
Cuarto en el último piso. Pero había una pasillo y tocaba cerrar las ventanas para que la gente no viera hacia adentro

The hotel is half under construction, the rooftop patio could be so much more but, generally, the hotel seems kinda abandoned. Good area but do not expect quiet as there are roosters across the pedestrian street (which allows cars) and a club nearby is very noisy until about 1 or 2am. Staff was friendly and tried to accommodate. Rooms clean and amenities work.
