The location was definitely a plus. It made getting around easy. My room had updated furnishings and fixtures. The air conditioning worked well during the summer.
My room faced an interior alley. The windows offered no view. The layout was a little strange with the toilet and shower at opposite ends. The WiFi signal was weak in my room.
