Area was central to lots of attractions and bus/ subway station. Lots of cafes nearby. The area outside is not the cleanest but it was not a big negative for me. Enjoyed my stay and would definitely book again.

Bad experience!!!
We booked for a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids 17 and 11), we gave ages during booking but when we got to the hotel our room was for 3 people. 3 pillow, 1 twin and 1 double bed, 3 towels, 3 pairs of slippers. When we went to investigate we were told the room was for 3 people and I showed her the reservation but she refused to help. We were stuck! They offered for us to pay for another room but we already paid for this room.
We needed the business center, we confirmed it was there and when we went to use it the keyboard didn’t work. When we went back to reception she said keyboard is broken but everything else works. How do you use a computer without a keyboard?
All and all we were really frustrated. As a family of 4 that travels a lot we will NOT be back.
Muy buena situaciòn, , posibilidad de ir a puntos de interés caminando y muy bien comunicado. Camas muy còmodas y habitación limpia y amplia. Personal muy educado . En general , estancia excelente en todos los aspectos. Volvería a elegirlo sin duda.
