I had a pretty disappointing stay at Hotel San Thomas Inn. The location is decent for those who want to be in a lively area, but that's about it. I faced several issues like no Wi-Fi, no hot water, and the absence of basic amenities like a rubbish basket in the room. The price was low, which was a plus, but the overall experience didn't live up to expectations.
Rooms

The room was not up to standard with an old A/C unit that didn't cool effectively and a TV that felt like it was from another era.

My stay at Hotel San Thomas Inn was quite disappointing. While the location was decent for those looking to engage with the lively neighborhood, the lack of basic amenities significantly marred the experience. I encountered issues like no Wi-Fi and no hot water during my one-night stay, which left me questioning how this place is even considered a hotel.

My stay at Hotel San Thomas Inn was quite disappointing. While the location is somewhat appealing for travelers wanting to be in a popular neighborhood, the lack of basic amenities like Wi-Fi and hot water made the experience frustrating.

My stay at Hotel San Thomas Inn was quite disappointing. While I appreciated the location in a popular neighborhood, the lack of basic amenities like Wi-Fi and hot water really tarnished the experience. For the price of USD 35, I didn't expect luxury, but a few essentials would have gone a long way.

My stay at Hotel San Thomas Inn was quite disappointing. The location is decent for travelers who enjoy the popular neighborhood, but the lack of basic amenities really dampened the experience.
