This is a very dated hotel. It felt like the apartment Tom Hanks has in the movie Big, and not the nice rich one. It was very clean but felt very old.

A great place to stay, fare prices, considering the area. You can explore the tourists buildings and the night life by walking. Very clean space. Nice shower, but the bathroom exhaust fan was really loud and it couldn't be turn off if lights were on. The corredor had a exagherate smell of air freshner.
