This is a good budget option for staying near the city. It was easy to get into the city from the subway station right next to the hotel. The staff was nice. I found it very noisy, i could hear everything in the hallway, the elevator beeping, the guests in nearby rooms coughing, the subway outside, cars on the road, etc. The room was pretty good although the walls are very scuffed up. The bathroom was nice. The window didnt latch shut and i could hear the wind howling in the crack. As a solo female traveler i found the area to be a bit intimidating, especially after seeing a few people behaving oddly, but maybe I'm just not as nonplussed as city people are. If you need an inexpensive option with easy access to the city, this is a good choice.
