Nice hotel in a good location. Noisy at night. No air conditioning and it was so hot I had a terrible sleep. When I told the staff at checkout they shrugged and said I should have asked for a fan in the middle of the night. Hopeless!

Our room was just what we needed for our one night stay. It was very small but clean and quiet. We had a room with private bathroom. Right across the street from the botanical gardens.
