Good hotel with lots of history and character. I was in room 237 overlooking the pool and everything was good. Arriving late at night the entrance and surrounding area look pretty grim, but it's much better once you are inside and the hotel is quite large. Good value for $36 (single, non-refundable rate). AC, TV, small fridge, very hot water in the shower, and WiFi works well throughout. One block from Calle 15 and the pedestrian shopping street with lots of shops and a few blocks to Bolivar Plaza. A couple of supermarkets are within 2 blocks to stock up on water and beer for the fridge. There is also a small, friendly bar open in the evening just next to the hotel (take a right out the front door and it's on the right) if you want to get a beer outside of the hotel without walking too far at night. Breakfast wasn't included in my rate, so I didn't try the restaurant. The pool is kept clean and is a treat after walking in the heat during the day.
