The hotel room was clean however the paint on the walls is dirty. The bedhead is discolored, bathroom mirror old and discolored. Air conditioner is very dirty.
Bed is not comfortable. I ask front desk for ticker bedsheets buy there don't have. I booked for 6 days but leaves on the third day. The hotel is 5 minutes away from the free zone. Its the only thing i like.

I really like the hotel. I think is the best option in the downtown area. Logically is an old hotel but they renovated it

Helpful, friendly staff. Clean. Cheap coin operated washer & dryer. Comfortable beds, nice rooftop. Great kitchen, although it would be nice if they provided dish soap and scouring pads. Close to Metro, within walking distance. Near restaurants and shopping.
We've booked 2 more nights.
