I enjoyed the warm welcome from the staff. They are so friendly! My room was clean and bright. I appreciated the lockers the hotel provided to store luggage. This service made my travels easier. It also gave me peace of mind.
The location was great for train arrival. it was more complicated when touring the city for the airport connection. I think they should work on making that aspect easier.

The bathroom was nice.
The listing claimed to have air conditioning. This was a lie. They only switch between ac or heat for the whole building, so it was set to heat. The manager told us to open the windows, but mosquitoes got in from the canals.
