The value to dollar ratio is amazing. Also the fresh orange juice machine. Crazy.

Would stay again as a backpacker - but not as a couple. May prefer something bigger, but dont get me wrong - the hotel was alright for the price and should definitely be considered.

The pillows were very hard, which made sleep uncomfortable.

Everything necessary was available :) Not far from the metro, trains. Close to 24-hour shops. Near one of the main streets.
