Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No elevator — The property is explicitly labeled as 'Edificio Sin Ascensor' (building without an elevator), which could be a challenge with heavy luggage or for guests with mobility issues.
- Basic facilities and limited dining — Facilities rate only 7.0, and the only on-site dining option mentioned is a restaurant that one review described as 'good' but not outstanding.
- No pets allowed — If you're traveling with a pet, this isn't the place — the property explicitly disallows pets.
- Street noise possible — Given the central location near metro and shops, some guests may find ambient noise from the street. This isn't verified in reviews but is a common trade-off for such a location.
