Definitely a 2 star hotel. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The hotel itself is old and in dire need of a serious face lift. However, at this point a face lift might be too late. Bathroom smelled funky and the towels were like sand paper. None of the night lamps worked so it was LIGHTS ON or darkness. The location is good; right in the middle of the District 1 madness, but on a "quieter" street.
