1. I would not recommend this place because of lack of security.

2. The hotel gave us 20/night for the lack of ac but that wasn't nearly enough to compensate for the miserable situation.

"Any place is nicer than this gross, not too safe dump " Read full review on TripAdvisor 7/6/2010 Vote

3. The comfort of the mattress and the lack of interruptions and loud noise put me in dreamland almost the minute I hit the pillow.

4. The only downside is the lack of complementary breakfast - I think that most guests would accept paying a couple of extra dollars for having some toasts and orange juice in the morning, even if there are plenty of places around the hotel to have some breakfast.

5. The hallway, as well as the first room we were assigned, smelled of smoke, the mattresses, including the rollaway, lacked proper support, and the bathroom is small and the configeration is just odd.
