The hotel is located right in the city center. It's a small place, and they have water coolers on every floor, so you can refill your bottles and drink as much as you like. The mattress and pillows are very comfortable, and the room itself is spacious. That pretty much covers all the positives.
Now for the downsides: The hotel is old, and the biggest drawback is its location right next to a railway line where the metro runs. In the room, it feels like you're sleeping on the tracks – trains constantly pass by, and they're so loud it sounds like a war has broken out. You can't open the window, even though I specifically booked a room with a balcony so I could do just that. The second major issue is that the air conditioner is so ancient that you can't sleep with it on; it's even louder than the trains outside. Ultimately, we slept without the AC because no normal person could sleep through that noise, and with the window closed because of the railway line directly below and the highway running parallel to it with cars constantly passing. I didn't read about any of this in other reviews, and if I had known, I would never have chosen this hotel. I didn't expect much from the staff at a 4-star hotel, and indeed, no one helped me with my luggage when checking in. Their parking costs $75 a day, so we ended up using a municipal parking lot. And finally, in the shower, the showerhead is fixed to the ceiling and can't be adjusted, meaning there was no way for me to shower without getting my entire face and head wet. Plus, the water pressure was very weak.
