There were some cleanliness issues that need to be cleared up. The building is obviously old but they seem to have done some renovations. There was some kind of mold build up in my shower drain, so I just skipped showering since it was just one night. The bedding was a little stained, so that was disappointing. And the furniture was also heavily stained. But over all, for the price I paid, it was as good as I expected. They so clearly clean the basic areas on a regular basis as there was no dust build up, the bed was perfectly made, and the floor was very clean. The staff was also very nice and accommodating.
The bedding seemed clean but this was either a stain or clearly not clean

Staff was very rude, specially the receptionist who checked me in, I showed up on time and he said I couldn’t check in because the room wasn’t ready which I understand but at the same time is their responsibility to have it ready by check in time, at that point I was already upset but what upset me a lot more is the way he was talking to me, very rude and prepotent. Also the bed makes noise every time you move which is annoying when you’re trying to sleep.
