friendly staffearly check-incentral locationdated roomuncomfortable bedbroken holder
The staff was REALLY friendly and helpful. I got to check in early because my room was ready. The location felt quite central for getting around.
The room felt somewhat dated to me. The bed wasn't the MOST comfortable I've slept in. I also noticed that the shower head holder was broken, so I had to hold it while showering.
