This is one hotel where the pictures don't even begin to tell the story. It is located in a very busy thoroughfare. You don't even need an alarm to wake up. Automobile traffic will do it for you. The interior is dated. Added to that, there was extensive renovation going on. So, if you want peace of mind, don't hang around the hotel. The constant sound of construction will drive you nuts! Oh, did I mention the price? It was an outrageous $140.00 per night. For me, the most lopsided cost-reward ratio ever.
So, what's its selling point? It is really close to the US Consulate, and in a street with a lot of run-down buildings, it manages to shine with a passable exterior. If you have business at the Consulate and plan just a one-day visit, there are other hotels on the street. They are not quite as desirable from the outside, but they cost considerably less, suffer the same bedlam from automobile traffic and, hey, it's just one night, right? Even our cab-driver warned us that it was too pricey.
You've been warned.
