The hotel is excellent in general. Be aware that rooms on the river side is more expensive and that you have to ask for this when you book your room. on the back rooms you may get some noise from the cafes and other stores there. There is no ref. in the room. AC is great but with little noise. Breakfast is Ok and not the best that you could get.

Decent Hotel

The room was small, smelled like mildew in the hallway and room. The Canadian at the front desk was not very helpful and didn’t have a map of the city. The hotel does have the best view of the river and city if you stay in room 323. Breakfast and dinner were good, but crowded due to a large group staying at the hotel.
Some really smelly repair
