My stay at the hotel was a mix of comfort and noise. The rooms were very comfortable overall, but being situated above the bar with live music playing until late made it feel like the drummer was actually in my room. The cleanliness was lacking; the place looked dirty and poorly maintained, with visible webs in areas of the room. The constant banging on doors for cleaning was unpleasant.

Despite the comfort, the noise from the live music below and poor cleanliness affected my stay. Could use improvement in maintenance and cleaning.

The staff were helpful, especially in sorting out a payment issue and adjusting costs due to missing breakfast. However, serving a large number of guests individually was a bit slow.

The hotel's location was the highlight, close to many cheap and good restaurants, with easy access to public transport and other convenient stores. It costs around $5 for an Uber to get to Casco Viejo.
Dining

The dining experience was below expectations, with a poor breakfast selection that did not justify the $5 price. Mostly basic offerings like toast, butter, and marmalade.
Facilities
Limited feedback on facilities, but improvements in dining and room cleanliness would enhance the overall experience. Price may not fully match the offerings.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was comfortable and included air conditioning and a large comfy bed, plus free WiFi. However, I was surprised to be asked for a $50 deposit for the mini-bar. The location was convenient, right in the action with plenty of dining and shopping options nearby.

My stay at this hotel was quite disappointing. The rooms were not clean and desperately needed renovation. To make matters worse, during check-in, we faced issues with our key not working multiple times and were eventually given a room on a lower floor due to a lack of technician availability. The shower provided only cold water with no way to adjust the temperature.

Despite a few hiccups during check-in and a cold shower issue in the room, I still found my stay quite decent, especially considering the discounted rate available in the late afternoon. The convenience of a mini bar in the room was a nice touch.

The room took a while to be ready at check-in, and we had some trouble with the key at first. Despite being moved to a lower floor, the room was comfortable once we got in. The cold shower was a letdown, though.

The breakfast consisted of a meager selection, including dry toast, eggs, and a weiner. Not the best start to the day, especially before an early activity. However, the location and access were nice.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was excellent with many nearby dining options and a convenient subway station, but there were some cleanliness and service issues. The staff were not attentive and even made a negative comment about a guest. However, the hotel felt safe and bustling with shopping opportunities.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On the positive side, the great location near a metro stop and various restaurants was convenient. However, the rooms had a strong pee smell upon arrival, and dealing with key issues and a cold shower wasn't ideal. The live music above the bar was so loud it felt like the drummer was in my room, making it hard to rest.
