The reality was not at all what was advertised online. I arrived at the hotel and the reception area was quite run down and was not the actual location of my room. There was not a hotel but rather a boarding house self-entry building four blocks away.

The images on line of the hotel is not where we ended up staying. When we arrived the lady was closing up shop for the day( mindful that the post says 24/7 front desk) she was not happy to see us. Gave us our papers and wanted to be done for us. Luckily a guy told us he would take us to the apartment about 400 meters away. It was also advertise that is was close to the Klon Cathedral. It was not. We felt let down. It was clean and provided us a rest.
