Very good value for cost. The bed and bedding were excellent and the room layout was great. Shower was great. It was nice and quiet at night. The only issue for me was how the room was a bit dirty in some places and not that well maintained compared to other hotels in the US (old carpet, nasty bathroom walls...). I would still stay here again; I had a great sleep.
