The area is a friendly but rough working class (immigrant) area, but yet close to the central city. I haven’t found any shop or so around, but lots down town. I was in doubt when I booked this hotel, and even more when I got into their bar. Not speaking of the corridor leading to my room with its carpet...But I was positively surprised when I got the room, not perfect, not newly painted, but quite ok. The beds and sheets where clean and sort of new, the bathroom was very ok. I had two issues, to take a shower you ”need” to be inside to turn on the water, and the warm water takes a while to come, and the floor in the room wasn’t 100% vacuumed. I could definitely come back! And by the way, even if some things are worn out, ages ago, it has its charm, the locals in the pub take care of each other, have their social life attended too, so it’s all very familiar 😍
