For the price, this hotel was alright for a night or two. The airport pickup service was reliable and very convenient. As for location, the street the hotel is on is a narrow side street and is not well lit at night. However, it is within 5-10 minute's walk from the metro which makes for easy access to other parts of the city. We found the staff to be friendly, albeit very focused on selling tours. Unfortunately, our room was terrible. It was located in the back of the hotel, and had no window. It was dark, smelled of smoke, and didn't feel clean. Certain lights didn't work, and the shower was old and in need of some simple updating (a new shower head would make a big difference!) The cabinets were falling off the wall. Other than the room, the hotel wasn't bad, but naturally the room is a big part of the stay. If we stay here again, we will specifically request an upper room with a window and will ask to see the room first prior to paying.
