Pros: The night markets are right outside and silver sellers all over the street
Cons: Depending on your room you might get a little noise from the nights club but it isn't much
Location: right in the silver area
Value: great value; the rooms are homely with the timber walls and the pool on the roof is as good as the pics - an oasis!
