The room was spotless and the staff was very helpful. It was our first time time and it was close to the subway so that helped a lot. I would definitely recommend this place for not only budget friendly but convenient to transportation.

A localização é ótima, mas o quarto parece um cativeiro é muito, mas muitoooo simples. Os cobertores parecem tapetes de tão duros, chega dar coceira, precisa de uma bela reforma. Por ser muito simples o público que frequenta é bem ruim, não me hospedaria de novo no local.
