Pros (+) No breakfast served. WiFi did not work. Bed was comfortable. Room was very clean, a big plus.
Cons (-) More seating accommodations. One bench, mostly under the hanging clothes, was inadequate. The bed was a bit too high to offer comfortable seating (fine for sleeping - just not for sitting).

Cons (-) The curtains were dirty and the TV didn't work but we didn't spend much time in the hotel so it didn't ruin the trip.
