The staff was helpful. The bed was ok. The room smelled of cigarettes. It was dark with all the lights on. The wifi was barely usable. It was very inconvenient to get to. 20 min to any subway.

Unless you are a local, don't stay.
I am very disappointed, the hotel is hot and in a less than safe area. None of the staff speak English. The reviews you see on hotels.com are VERY misleading. The wifi is non existent and the "A/C" is a fan that blows hot air around. I was only able to bear one night and my wife and I had to move to a different hotel closer to the city center. We were told that this hotel is for locals. Not for tourists, so please bear that in mind! The price is good, but you're paying for what you will get. Poor room, poor a/c, poor wifi, and poor communication.
