Meh

I wouldn't choose this place again. My room was given to someone else before I arrived. The one I got was shabby, with a light that didn't turn on, a coffee maker with a loose handle, a kleenex holder that protruded weirdly from the wall, and lots of noise. Besides the children galloping like elephants overhead, there was the highway traffic, the wind whistling in the roof area, and the incredibly loud air conditioner (which did not allow temperature to be set.) Breakfast was okay, nothing great. Staff were overworked but pleasant.

The overall experience was good. Was a bit musty when entering room. I turned on the AC and after a bit the air became better. The beds were ok. Not the best matteresses but not bad. The breakfast was fine. Basic cereal, juice, hard boiled eggs, pancakes and muffins. For a place to stay to get some sleep this hotel will do.
