The downside: the bathroom is down the hall for some rooms, there are no eggs at breakfast, the bedside lamps may or may not work, and it's a long way from the center of town. The upside: the hotel is spotlessly clean, the food in the restaurant (¢-$) sticks to your ribs, a bus at the door gets you downtown with ease, and you'll find a piece of chocolate on your bedside table each night. Not a bad choice for travelers on a budget. Pros: clean, friendly, good value. Cons: shared bathrooms, far from the sights.
