large roomgreat varietydated decorbad smell
The room was very large with everything i could possibly need. Breakfast was generous. There was lots of variety (especially the coffee).
The decor seemed dated. Hallways had a bad smell, like an old apartment building and made me unconformable.

The staff was cute I appreciated that. The hotel provides little extras for guest comfort. The room size was adequate I liked the available facilities. Free laundry service was very helpful to me.
The room was dark I found that disappointing. The AC did not cool the entire suite properly. Trash in the kitchen was not emptied upon my arrival. The mattress needs to be replaced it has deteriorated over time.
