PROS: Location was okay. Many bars and restaurants around the area / within walking distance to many sites. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Common areas make it easy to meet new people. CONS: Stayed in the double private room. No air conditioning, so had to keep windows open. Streets and common areas made it loud so it was hard to sleep. Shower had no ledge to break it from regular floor, so water was all over bathroom. Bed was broken so it was very uncomfortable. Not the cleanest either. Beth, from USA ~ 6th Apr 2012
