Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is located in an old part of town on narrow maze of streets. It would be very easy to get lost. The room was tiny, up steep stairs. Bathroom fixtures were operational but old and corroded. There was air conditioning and fan. The night clerk was nice and helpful.
