Fantastic Stay! Highly Recommend!

great locationmodern roomprompt servicedimly lighted street
This location is GREAT, just a short walk from the bus and train terminals. Getting around was super easy! The room itself was modern and spacious, with awesome views of the canal. The woman at breakfast was so nice. The service was really prompt and excellent!
The street was not very well lit at night, I would have felt more comfortable if it was brighter. The bathroom lacked a waste basket, a bit inconvenient.

the air conditioning was not very cold. i communicated with the staff about how to try and make it colder. there were no options to do that. i know that it was very hot out, but it was still very warm in the room and uncomfortable. additionally, there were issues with getting hot water in my shower.
