Excellence at a budget price

Hotel is in a residential area and more of a motel. Cleanliness was extremely high and the staff were friendly and helpful There's no restaurant on site but within easy walking distance are a large mall, lots of cafes & shopsplus bus & metro stations For a budget hotel it does its job perfectly just dont expect 3 or 4 star standards Only dowsides for me are wifi quality & no cupboard / hanging space for clothes

This is a good choice for a budget hotel -- about $50 US. The room has one window which looks out to the hallway, so no privacy if open. No AC, of course, and no fan. Very hot and stuffy. I needed a place to crash for a couple of hours and store my suitcases until my Airbnb apartment was available. Nice restaurants and the beautiful park just a half block away.

Fees like a compound for parking but the rooms are ample, the beds big and comfortable. A lack is a bathroom mat, wash and hand towels; the towels provided are thin but do the job.

This is a nifty reasonably priced hotel in the heart of the Santa Maria La Ribera neighborhood--just a hlaf block away from the Kiosko Morisco. My room was ready ahead of schedule so I was able to drop off suitcases early, a big plus. The staff was friendly and helpful. There was plenty of parking on the premises. The bathroom was very clean and the bedroom was ample with a view to the street. All in all, a surprisingly good find. I recommend it without hesitation.

Buen lugar cerca al parque y tiendas

Fue un lugar amable, las camas eran comodas pero se movian porque tienen llantitas, dieron botellas de agua cada día, no que nos gustó fue que no habia muchos enchufes para el celular, el baño no tenía silla en la taza y muy poca agua caliente, la televisión tenia problemas para cambiar los canales, cuando ponias el canal de televisión número 21 se iba la señal del cable

Bueno

La zona es tranquila pero se puede llegar a sentir un ambiente de inseguridad ya que la puerta del estacionamiento esta abierta 24/7. Hubo alguien que trato de abrir la puerta de mi habitación sin lograrlo ( tienen doble seguro por dentro). En general la estancia es buena. No hay elevador algo a tomar en cuenta por aquellas personas que necesitan asistencia al caminar. A los alrededores del lugar hay lugares buenos para comer, panaderias, cafés, internet, etc. El wifi es algo malo suele desconectar constantemente.

Our stay was okay. The shower was missing a curtain and the walls were very thin. You could hear everything. Bed and towels were clean for the most part but the room could have used carpeting or floor mats.

Les pongo 1 estrella porque no se puede poner menos. Mi esposa y yo salimos y al regresar ya habian realizado la limpieza, dejaron la habitacion abierta (pensando que habiamos desocupado), lo cual se nos hizo raro porque hasta ese momento no habiamos hecho el check out, afortunadamento no habiamos dejado ningun articulo personal. Nos metimos a bañar y cuando estaba saliendo del baño se escucho que abrieron la puerta. Nos quejamos en recepción y dijeron que ellos pensaron que la habitación ya estaba desocupada, nunca ofrecieron una disculpa. Cabe mencionar que, el pasador de la puerta no funciona. La higiene del lugar en general es deficiente, huele a productos de limpieza pero la cama estaba sucia. No caigan en esta estafa, uno acude porque está en expedia, pero es basicamente un motel sucio, viejo e inseguro.
