The room had ample space. It was clean, which i liked. The bed provided a comfortable sleep. I found the shower water pressure very good..
The entrance lighting felt too bright. It gave a poor first impression. I noticed the bar looked a bit dilapidated. I think the public areas seemed soulless..

adequate but with issues

free parkingdirty filterbroken mattress
the free parking available at the premises was welcome.
The bathroom was not well kept. I saw the filter had not been cleaned in a long time. it was dropping dirt everywhere when switched on. the bed proved very uncomfortable and noisy. It appears the mattress may be broken. the whole floor smelled of cigarettes as i walked to my room.
