Great location for sightseeing, only a 5-minute walk from the subway station. The room was clean and comfortable, the price was reasonable, and the breakfast was good. The surrounding neighborhood was not the nicest, especially at night, but overall I had a pleasant stay.

The breakfast was great! The mattresses were very firm if you prefer that; we don’t. We opted not to have housecleaning everyday, but when we asked for clean bath towels we were questioned and it was a bit of a hassle. They held our luggage before checkin and after which was fantastic. The area around the hotel is sketchy. Saw someone shooting up in a doorway right next door.
