DO NOT BOOK HERE- There was black mould EVERYWHERE I couldn’t stop dry heaving. The hotel didn’t care and Expedia also didn’t care to do anything about it. I had to leave and they both refused to refund even tho this hotel is a literal health hazard.

Like a flop house. Bed just wire spring with mattress. Husband slept on the floor. Floors soft and rotting with thin carpeting. Could not open window or adjust temperature. Shower and sink in room smelled like swamp. Had to take paper with us to the toilet down the hall. The staff were pleasant and helpful. But we did not complete the 3 night reservation we had paid in advance.

Este hotel es solo para llegar a dormir, no dan ganas de de bañarse, los baños se ven viejos y en mal estado aunque si sale agua caliente. La ubicación es buena ya que cerca se puede tomar el bus o el metro. Muy cerca del museo
