Our room was very spacious and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was large, modern and everything worked. As other reviewers have commented, the carpet is old, stained and dirty-looking though, judging from the rest of the hotel, I'm sure they vacuum and clean it. Breakfast was good, coffee so-so. The main drawback for us was that the free hotel WiFi didn't reach our room, though it was good in the "lobby"/dining area. The property is a good walk to tourist attractions, but close to a Metro station. We like to walk, so that's what we did. We saw parts of the city that we would probably have missed if we had stayed in the heart of the old city.
