slow drain reception communication
The free parking was a nice perk. I was disappointed to find out I had to pay for parking. The reception never told me about free parking registration. the room had issues. The shower drain was slow, and it took a while for the water to drain properly.

Acceptable Stay near the City

clean room good breakfast helpful staff poor location distant bus stop isolated area
The room was clean and the beds felt great. Breakfast at the hotel tasted good. I think there is room for improvement, though. Staff were helpful. They were cute and friendly.
The location proved to be a problem for me. I understood it was nearer the center. There was nothing except a gym where the hotel is situated. The nearest bus stop was a ten minute walk away.
