The hotel is very clean, and the suites are nice, featuring a full-size fridge, stove, microwave, dishes, and utensils. It seems to be located next to a nursing home. There are many shopping areas nearby, as well as a variety of restaurants. It’s conveniently located, and I would definitely stay again.

Very noisy

The door to my room was very hard to close. Someone kept slamming their door next to me and people above me were very loud. Not a quiet place and hard to sleep. I would not stay there’s again even though the price was great!
