This hotel has a fantastic location that's perfect for exploring the city, with plenty of bars and a traditional convenience store nearby. The rooms are small but clean and have a lovely hot shower. However, the service left me feeling uncomfortable at times, and the dining options were extremely limited. Overall, it's decent for a short stay, but there's definitely room for improvement.

The hotel has a fantastic location, conveniently close to Florida Street, the Obelisco, and numerous bars. The rooms were adequate, though some felt a bit outdated and could use a better cleaning. The service was a mixed bag; while some staff were kind, others were less than efficient. Dining options were quite basic, providing just the essentials. Overall, it's a great spot for exploring the city, but it could benefit from some improvements in cleanliness and service.

The hotel has a great location, really close to popular spots in the city, which I loved. The rooms were a bit smaller than I expected, but they were clean and comfortable enough for a short stay. The staff were mostly helpful, but there were a couple of moments that felt a bit off. The breakfast could definitely use more variety-it felt very basic for a hotel claiming four stars. Overall, it was decent value for the price, but there are definitely some areas for improvement.
