Room was very quiet (stayed in a room for 4 people, two twins pushed together and a full size pull out couch). Beds were comfy, air conditioning was good. It was very hoot during our visit. Breakfast was satisfying and served promptly. Upstairs lounge was not operating during our stay. Staff was relatively friendly. Would stay here again. Although we liked the neighborhood, it was always a guaranteed walk.

Can not comment on the guardian hotel, after walking for 20 minutes in 36 degree heat we got told there was no space for us and we got moved to their sister hotel, whilst the other hotel was nice and probably better I don’t see a world where it is acceptable for this to happen and then be told they were too busy to let us know in advance, the staff themselves were nice and helpful but the situation was poor
