This place is in a great area and close to everything. We used the bixis, the metro and the bus all right outside the building and also were able to walk around to lots of places. We didn't find it too noisy, even though our window faced the street. If you are in town for a night or two, this is a very good budget friendly option, specially if you will be exploring all day like we did. we really appreciated Ala being flexible and allowing us to check in early to drop off our belongings. We will stay here again in future.
