Best rooms
Request a room on the first floor (European first floor, one flight up) at the rear of the building, away from Calle 5. Quieter position and less foot traffic.
Request a room on the ground floor (no steps) in the dorm section, as it's likely to be quieter and have easier access to the common areas.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing Calle 5; street noise from passing cars and pedestrians is likely. Also avoid rooms near the staircase or reception if possible.
Avoid rooms on the second floor, as they're likely to be noisier due to the main entrance and potential street noise from Calle 2.
