Great location, very close to the sea. Shopping is convenient, and it is a good location with culture and scenery. Looking forward to having the opportunity to stay again in the future. The Chinese food downstairs is good... There are homeless people nearby, so be careful with children

Pros: Centrally located, room smelled clean, there’s a bunch of quick and easy food options within walking distance, and the AC worked Cons: The sheets were rough and uncomfortable, the neighborhood is loud, some things in the room were chipped or broken, and the bathtub didn’t drain so we could each only take 1 shower or else it would have overflowed. When we called the front desk we were told the maintenance crew had already gone home and there was nothing they could do. When we asked to speak with a manager the next day we were promised a call that never came. Overall, you get what you pay for and I wouldn’t recommend this place or go back.
