good locationdated decorlimited breakfast
The location was acceptable. It was close to where i needed to be.
The room felt quite dated. The decor needed some refreshing. i found laundry bags in the hallways. That didn't create a good impression. also, breakfast was somewhat limited. Just one slice of toast was given.
