It’s right by the border so it’s convenient. However, you have a lot of people coming in and out. It’s very loud so bring earplugs.

While the exterior could use freshening up, the rooms were immaculately clean and stylish and appeared to be recently remodeled. The room was that of a very high end hotel. It couldn’t have been better. For the very reasonable price I’ll endure the exterior.
