The place was great! It's not the closest to the main attractions, but not bad, especially for the great price. Bus station is just down stairs. There are lots of local shops near by. Good if you want to do more than touristy things and really want to live more local. Monika was kind enough to go describe the neighborhood for you. She also gives you detailed information as to the touristy spots and best mode of transportation. In some way, I didn't even need a tour book.
