Our stay at Hotel Astor was for 10 days during the World Cup. I can honestly tell you it has been the cleanest hotel I have ever stayed at...and considering the occasion, noise level wasn't an issue. The beds were great, the staff was as helpful as any five star hotel I've ever been. The location is excellent, close to many services such as great restaurants, and laundry facilities. The Taco place across the street delicious.
