Clean and Well-Equipped Rooms.
The rooms here are very tidily kept, and guests generally found them to have everything necessary for comfortable stays. Don't expect accommodations that are especially luxurious, but stay here if you want basic, yet comfortable accommodations at a good price.
positive:
Fantastic Rooftop Pool.
Guests were wowed by the swimming pool on the roof of the hotel. They found it to be a great place to beat the heat, and especially appreciated it when travelling with kids. The gorgeous views will also give you an interesting and different perspective of the city from what you may be used to in the daytime.
Negative Reviews
negative:
The Immediate Area is Not Ideal.
This isn't a great place to stay if you want to be in the heart of it all. Although taxis are available to get to city attractions, guests found that there's not a lot to do right around the hotel. Some also commented that the area is a little desolate and feels a bit unsafe.
negative:
Small Rooms.
The rooms here are probably not among the most spacious you've ever seen. Usually, guests agreed that the small size was not too much of a bother, but they clarified it was especially noticeable when staying with family members.
negative:
The Bar Food is Very Pricey.
Many guests felt the prices of food at the rooftop bar were very expensive for what was offered. With that in mind, you may want to eat there as a special treat and not as a habit.
