It is everything you need for one night passing through. Comfortable and reliable. Although you can hear every single car passing in the morning. But inside the room everything is perfect.

It's fine for one night if you just need a place to sleep... but it's super out dated and the room still has that old dated smell that the carpet hasn't been changed out since the old days.
