Great communication even though it’s fully contactless. Team members really put in effort to check in and update. Room was clean and location is not too far from the main attractions. Would come again.

The place had to many restrictions and not and office, yet I understand certain rules. The floors were somewhat clean. It was close to downtown. I had an issue with parking, seems like people had friends coming over and no parking for the people that paid for room. The bathroom were super tiny and very uncomfortable, not to mention, God forbid you have a disability or problems with your legs, you will definitely be very uncomfortable. They gave me only 1 soap for 2 people yet I had to ask for more and they did give it to me. It does need some improvement but wasn’t bad.

There’s not a lot of options for hotels at this price. The room was clean and updated which was great, but unfortunately it was so noisy there, I didn’t sleep my entire day. Also, the air conditioner kept not working in the middle of the night, so we had to keep resetting it almost once an hour. We left exhausted.
