Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff was very nice and helpful, they even give you a welcome card and complimentary drink. Location is just about close to everything you want to see. Love the Rock and Roll theme gives the place a bit of personality without being tacky. Only complaint about the room is the TV is a bit old. Also a heads up if you have large luggage or have any injuries or disabilities this hotel doesn't have an elevator so you'd have to walk potentially 4 levels up the stairs while carrying your stuff

Excellent quaint hotel, great area everything within walking distance. Lovely people at the hotel, who were so friendly and I would highly recommend this lovely place. A special mention to the lovely Argentinan young lady at the hotel who helped so much with all the details back to the airport, and recommendations. I would definitely stay again.

The hotel was nice and the staff were amazingly friendly. The theme is also very cool. Only thing is the room was very small and warm. The location was good for someone who likes to walk a bit. The trams pass close by. All in all a good experience in tight quarters.

Irina

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The main advantage is location - most attractions are within walking distance. Sadly, this is the only advantage of this hotel. Our room was in the basement, next to 2 public bathrooms and a shower. It is incredibly loud due to the street noise and people using bathroom all night long. The walls are very thin. The couple right next to us was engaging in intimate relations 2-3 times a day with energy suitable for porn actors. I had to keep TV on and knock on their door at night to avoid feeling like I was a participant in their romantic adventures. Iwas on vacation with my 13 yo daughter and it was a horrifying experience. Would not recommend to any travelers with children.

We were on the fourth floor. We had to tote nine bags up 5 inch wide stairs that narrowed never told about that, no lift-elevator, no ac, unaware that three roads under construction couldn’t get to our hotel, had to drag bags in from long distance, no parking. Couldn’t have been worse of a stay. Bathroom had a state of mold and constant mildew smell. You need to maintain your property.

Check-in was very smooth and easy, and the girl that helped us at the beginning was extremely helpful and kind. Loved the location of the hotel, but the stairs were way deeper than we had expected, even though we were warned. We had another female employee that was a little rude to us when we stopped by in the morning and thought we could have some yogurt that was out, but everyone else was excellent
